Netanyahu spoke only hours after the Israeli military revealed that troops had carried out localised raids inside the besieged Palestinian territory over the past 24 hours as a prelude to an anticipated ground invasion.
Israel has also told Palestinians to leave Gaza City within 24 hours, sparking United Nations’ warnings of a humanitarian disaster.
Netanyahu reaffirmed his pledge that Hamas would be “destroyed.”
“We will never forgive, we will never let the world forget these horrors inflicted on the Jewish people. We will fight our enemies using power without limit,” he said.
The deadly attack that Hamas gunmen launched last Saturday also saw around 150 Israelis and foreigners abducted to Gaza as hostages.
Gaza officials say that retaliatory Israeli shelling and air raids have killed about 1,800 people in the Hamas-ruled territory.
