In the photo, PM Netanyahu is seen with a very short smile on his face as he shook hands with one of the soldiers.
At a news conference, PM Netanyahu stood side by side with United States (US) Secretary of State, Antony Blinken, and said, “Hamas is sheer evil and should be spat out”.
Blinken assured the Israeli PM of US’s “ironclad support” as the fight against Hamas continues.

“Israel is at war” – PM Netanyahu’s statement on Monday 9 October, 2023 on the War Against Hamas:
Israel is at war.
We didn’t want this war.
It was forced upon us in the most brutal and savage way.
But though Israel didn’t start this war, Israel will finish it.
Once, the Jewish people were stateless.
Once, the Jewish people were defenseless.
No longer.
Hamas will understand that by attacking us, they have made a mistake of historic proportions. We will exact a price that will be remembered by them and Israel’s other enemies for decades to come.
The savage attacks that Hamas perpetrated against innocent Israelis are mindboggling: slaughtering families in their homes, massacring hundreds of young people at an outdoor festival, kidnapping scores of women, children and elderly, even Holocaust survivors.
Hamas terrorists bound, burned and executed children.
They are savages.
Hamas is ISIS.
And just as the forces of civilization united to defeat ISIS, the forces of civilization must support Israel in defeating Hamas.
I want to thank President Biden for his unequivocal support.
I want to thank leaders across the world who are standing with Israel today.
I want to thank the people and Congress of the United States of America.
In fighting Hamas, Israel is not only fighting for its own people.
It is fighting for every country that stands against barbarism.
Israel will win this war, and when Israel wins,
the entire civilized world wins.
