Netanyahu: Israel Will Defend Its Citizens Against Rocket Fire
(Israel Ministry of Foreign Affairs) Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu expressed his regret on Tuesday that innocent civilians in Gaza were unintentionally hit as a result of IDF shelling. He emphasized that the shelling was carried out in response to Hamas fire at Israeli civilians. "It is regrettable that Hamas continues to intentionally rain down dozens of rockets on Israeli civilians even as it uses civilians as human shields. While the State of Israel has no intention of bringing about a deterioration of the situation, the IDF will continue to take determined action to defend Israeli citizens," he said.
