The war against Hamas “will not end with hostages in Gaza, period,” Danny Danon, Israel’s ambassador to the United Nations, told the inaugural JNS International Policy Summit in Jerusalem on Sunday.

“We haven’t finished the job,” declared Danon, a senior member of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s ruling Likud Party.

The Israeli diplomat addressed the JNS summit just hours after touring the sites of the Oct. 7, 2023 Hamas massacre with a group of approximately 30 fellow U.N. ambassadors, he revealed.
