Netanyahu also slammed French President Emmanuel Macron over his remarks that there was "no justification" of Israeli bombings on children, women and old people.
Netanyahu also revealed his post-war plans and said that Israel will have "overall security responsibility" for the Gaza Strip for "an indefinite period" after the fighting is over.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that the soldiers fell in a just war and vowed to eliminate Hamas.

Israel’s parliament, the Knesset, narrowly approved the new Bennett-led coalition government on Sunday, ending Netanyahu’s historic 12-year rule.
Israel’s latest political drama adds to the woes of Netanyahu, who is on trial for criminal charges of fraud, bribery and breach of trust while in office ~ accusations that he has denied.
Israel launched the military offensive after the rocket attacks began, but it has been criticised for use of disproportionate force in the Palestinian territory.
The fighting between Israel and Hamas was triggered by days of escalating clashes between Palestinians and Israeli police at a holy hilltop compound in East Jerusalem.
