VIDEO: Netanyahu warns Hamas not to mistake truce efforts for "weakness"

"Israeli" Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Thursday that the Palestinian group Hamas should not view his country's willingness to reach a truce deal in Gaza as a "weakness".

"We are working to reach another deal for the release of our hostages. But if Hamas interprets our willingness to reach a deal as weakness, as an opportunity to dictate surrender terms that would endanger the State of Israel, it is gravely mistaken," he said in a speech.
