Israel won’t sign up to a truce that curtails its ability to destroy tunnels Hamas dug to launch attacks from Gaza, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said, as the country called up an additional 16,000 reservists.
“We are determined to complete this operation, with or without a cease-fire,” Netanyahu said in remarks broadcast by radio before a meeting of the cabinet today. “We won’t agree to any proposal that doesn’t let the Israeli army complete this important job.”
