Israel National News reports: “Itzik Bonzel, father of Sgt. Amit Bonzel z’l, who was killed in battle, spoke at the Arutz Sheva studio in the Knesset as part of the ‘Gaza – The Day After’ conference and expressed deep concern over the security situation.

According to Bonzel, the current situation is reminiscent of the period before the IDF entered Rafah. ‘Hamas is strengthening, recruiting masses into its ranks, rebuilding the tunnels, preparing for the days ahead. We will pay a very heavy price in human lives for this,’ he warned. Bonzel stressed that there is no choice but to return to fighting ‘in order to disarm Hamas.’

Asked about public fatigue from the war, he responded: ‘You don’t want another October 7. I am not threatening or intimidating anyone. We know there will be another war someday. The Gaza issue must be resolved militarily. There is no other way.’…”
