Bibi: Retaliation for Terror Attacks Just Beginning
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Friday that the targeted killing of the Popular Resistance Committee heads was only the beginning of Israel’s response to the attacks in South Israel Thursday that left eight Israelis dead and over twenty wounded.
Netanyahu made his statement while visiting soldiers who had been wounded in the attacks at Soroka Hospital Be’er Sheva.
