"The IDF is directing its action against the terrorists of Hamas, not against innocent civilians," Netanyahu said. "Hamas deliberately hides behind Palestinian civilians, and therefore bears responsibility for accidental injuries."
The prime minister called on Israeli citizens to follow the instructions of the Home Front Command and understand that the operation against terrorists in Gaza may not be over quickly.
"I urge you to be patient, because this operation could take a long time," he said. "From the perspective of the terrorist organizations, the whole of Israel is one front, and all Israeli citizens are one target. Therefore we must stand together as one - united and confident in our righteousness. We are acting decisively and forcefully to restore calm, and will continue to act until the quiet returns, so that our citizens and our children can live in security."
