00:00Since October 7th a year ago, Israel has achieved most of its strategic objectives when it comes to Gaza.
00:08All with the idea of making sure that October 7th could never happen again.
00:13Now is the time to turn those successes into an enduring strategic success.
00:19And there are really two things left to do.
00:22Get the hostages home and bring the war to an end with an understanding of what will follow.
00:28Even as all of this is happening, it's absolutely essential that humanitarian assistance get to the people who need it
00:36in Gaza.
00:36So we went over that in some detail yesterday.
00:39And I can report that there's progress made, which is good, but more progress needs to be made.
00:45And most critically, it needs to be sustained.
00:47We are resolute in our defense of Israel when it comes to attacks it's receiving from Iran, from Iran's proxies.
00:53And we stand with Israel, and we'll always stand with Israel in its defense.
00:58It's also very important that Israel respond in ways that do not create greater escalation and do not risk spreading
01:07the conflict.
