Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Sunday called on Hamas members to lay down their arms and surrender as the IDF continues to make gains within the Gaza Strip.
"In recent days, dozens of Hamas terrorists have surrendered to our forces. They are laying down their arms and surrendering themselves to our heroic soldiers. It will take more time, the war is at its peak, but this is the beginning of the end for Hamas," he said.
"I say to the Hamas terrorists: It's over. Don't die for Sinwar. Surrender - now."
Yahya Sinwar assumed the role of Hamas leader in Gaza in 2017.

Hamas wants a comprehensive deal to end the war in Gaza and swap all Israeli hostages for Palestinians jailed in Israel, a senior official from the Palestinian militant group said, rejecting Israel's offer of an interim truce.
Qatar’s Deputy Prime Minister and Defense Minister Sa’oud bin Abd Al-Rahman Al Thani posted and hastily deleted an X message this week endorsing Hamas, proclaiming, “We are all Hamas… Oh Al-Quds, revolt and commemorate Al-Qassam!”
In a meeting held Thursday in Moscow, Qatar’s Emir, Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al-Thani, blamed Israel for failing to uphold a ceasefire agreement in Gaza, originally brokered in January by Qatar, Egypt, and the United States.
