Nearly two weeks after the launch of Operation Roaring Lion, Israeli Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu says Israel is still far from concluding the military campaign and continues to strike targets according to its operational plans.

As the operation approaches the end of its second week, uncertainty remains about when the fighting will end. Netanyahu has declined to provide a specific date for the conclusion of the war, indicating that Israel’s objectives have not yet been fully achieved.

Over the past day, the prime minister held conversations with several ministers and political figures about the possible timeline for ending the war. During those discussions, Netanyahu indicated that the conflict could continue for several more weeks.

Addressing the progress of the operation, Netanyahu stressed that Israel still has many targets left to attack and that the military campaign is proceeding according to plan.

“We are not close to the end,” he was quoted as saying by Channel 12 News. “We still have many targets, but the pace is excellent and we are ahead of schedule. I can’t give you a time estimate. Maybe a week, maybe a week and a half, maybe a few weeks. It depends on many variables. We are continuing according to the plan.”

In recent days, Israeli assessments reported in the media have suggested that the war is expected to continue at least until after Pesach.
