TEL AVIV, ISRAEL (SEPTEMBER 8, 2025) (USERS MUST CREDIT “ISRAELI PRIME MINISTER’S OFFICE” HANDOUT, MUST NOT OBSCURE LOGO —EDITORIAL USE ONLY) SHOTLIST 1. (SOUNDBITE) (Hebrew) ISRAELI PRIME MINISTER BENJAMIN NETANYAHU SAYING: "This has been a difficult day in our war on terrorism. Two abhorrent terrorists came to a bus stop, shot at a bus and murdered six of our dear citizens. I send condolences to the families, and I also send best wishes for a speedy recovery to those who were wounded. That we eliminated these two terrorists is not enough. That we will go after their supporters and accomplices is also not enough. My directive is to forcefully go after the nests of terrorism. We have already eliminated the nests of terrorism in three refugee camps. We simply evacuated the population from there and flattened all terrorist infrastructure – and my directive is to do this in additional terrorist nests. I am here at the Air Force command center. A few days ago I promised you that we would bring down the terrorist high-rises in Gaza. This is exactly what we are doing. In the last two days, 50 such high-rises have fallen; the Air Force took them down.Now all of this is just an introduction, just a prelude, to the main intense operation — a ground maneuver of our forces, who are now organizing and gathering in Gaza City. Therefore, I am taking this opportunity to say to the residents of Gaza, listen to me carefully: You have been warned; Get out of there!" TEL AVIV, ISRAEL (SEPTEMBER 8, 2025) (USERS MUST CREDIT “ISRAELI PRIME MINISTER’S OFFICE” HANDOUT, MUST NOT OBSCURE LOGO —EDITORIAL USE ONLY) Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu boasted Monday that his army destroyed 50 high-rise residential buildings in Gaza City in two days, vowing further demolitions and forced displacement. “In the past two days, 50 of these towers have fallen. The air force brought them down,” Netanyahu said in a video statement. “Now all of this is just an introduction, just a prelude, to the main intense operation — a ground maneuver of our forces, who are now organizing and gathering in Gaza City.” Netanyahu pledged to proceed with forced displacement plans. “This is just the prelude to the main powerful operation, so I tell Gaza residents: you have been warned, get out of there.” The Palestinian resistance group Hamas denounced Netanyahu’s boasting as “one of the ugliest forms of sadism and criminality” in full view of the world. On Friday, the Israeli army began to bomb multi-story buildings sheltering hundreds of displaced civilians in Gaza City, as Tel Aviv pressed ahead with a plan to occupy the entire city. Israel has killed more than 64,500 Palestinians in a brutal offensive in Gaza since October 2023. The military campaign has devastated the enclave and pushed the entire population into famine. Last November, the International Criminal Court issued arrest warrants for Netanyahu and his former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant for war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza. Israel also faces a genocide case at the International Court of Justice for its war on the enclave.
