British Foreign Secretary David Cameron , who previously served as the country's prime minister, visited Kibbutz Be'eri with his Israeli counterpart Foreign Minister Eli Cohen, who thanked him for his support and firm stance on behalf of Israel since the beginning of the war with Hamas in Gaza.
"World leaders need to see the atrocities of Hamas with their own eyes, and understand that Israel is fighting a terrorist organization worse than ISIS," Cohen said, adding: "Even after the temporary truce for the release of women and children kidnapped to Gaza, Israel will continue fighting until the goals are achieved: the destruction of Hamas rule in the Gaza Strip and the release of each and every one of the hostages.
