Prime Minister's Office announcement
Israel - Prime Minister's Office
The 37th Government
10.11.2023
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu visited today the reopened Nahal Oz Command Center at the Re'im army base and the 411th artillery brigade.
The commanders presented an overview of the sector and described the events of October 7th.
The Prime Minister spoke with the soldiers and joined them and their commanders in a Friday night Kiddush service. The Prime Minister expressed his sorrow over the terrible murder by Hamas of their fellow soldiers from the Nahal Oz command center, and praised them for their important work, which is vital to the security of Israel.
The Prime Minister then went to the assembly sites near the Gaza border, where he met with the 411th Artillery Brigade. The Prime Minister spoke with one of the teams and heard about the vehicle they operate and its capabilities, and about their cooperation on the ground with other forces.
The Prime Minister then joined the soldiers of the brigade for a Shabbat dinner.
Prime Minister Netanyahu said to the fighters:
"You are doing a great job. You provide a screen of fire for our forces. We are moving forward. We will not stop until we fulfill the mission. The mission has two parts: deterrence in the north, and some of you were there, and a decisive win in the south. A win means eliminating Hamas.
We are not going back to the way things were. And with the help of God, and yours, that is what will happen. Our fighters in there - on the ground - count on you.
The people of Israel count on you.
I wish to tell your parents, who will see you later: You sent us the best. You are doing fantastic work, outstanding. I want to thank you and tell you that we are moving forward until we win. Shabbat Shalom".
