Netanyahu said dozens of "Hamas members have surrendered to our forces in the past few days."
"The war is still ongoing but it is the beginning of the end of Hamas," Netanyahu said in a video statement. "I say to the Hamas terrorists: It's over. Don't die for (Yahya) Sinwar. Surrender now."
Yahya Sinwar is the leader of Hamas in Gaza. Hamas is deemed a terror organization by the US, Germany, and EU, among others.
Sinwar is currently believed to be hiding in the tunnels under Gaza. Capturing Sinwar dead or alive is one of the top objectives for the Israeli forces during the military operation in Gaza.
