Israel will spare no effort in returning all of the hostages taken captive by Hamas from the Gaza Strip, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu assured the hostages' families in a meeting at the Kirya military headquarters in Tel Aviv on Tuesday.
"We are committed, I am personally committed, to releasing all hostages. I sent the Mossad chief to Europe twice to advance hostage release talks," Netanyahu said.
Refusing to commit to the success of Israeli efforts, Netanyahu added: "Will I succeed? I can give you one assurance - we are not stopping," he told the families.
