Gaza War: Benjamin Netanyahu says Israel paying ‘heavy price’ 0
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says the Gaza war has come at a “very heavy price” for his side.
The military says 14 more soldiers have been killed in the Palestinian territory since Friday, bringing the total of the ground assault to 153.
Saturday was one of its deadliest days – but Mr Netanyahu said his forces had “no choice” but to keep fighting.
Meanwhile, the health ministry in Gaza – run by Hamas – says another 166 people were killed in the last day.
More than 20,000 people have been killed – mostly women and children, and 54,000 injured in Gaza since 7 October, the ministry says.
