(CBN) – Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu threatened Hamas terrorists with “the surprise of their lives” if they don’t put a stop to the recent stream of rockets coming out of the Gaza Strip. “I’m telling you as prime minister, I don’t rush to war,” Netanyahu said during an interview with Israel’s Channel 20. “I don’t puff out my chest, bang drums and blow trumpets.
But we’re preparing for Hamas the surprise of their lives. I won’t say what it is, but it will be different from anything that came before.” Netanyahu added that Hamas’ surprise “is entirely up to them. If they don’t come to their senses with the rockets and don’t stop the balloons, it’s only a matter of time before we deploy it.”
Just moments after the interview, Gaza terrorists launched another rocket at Israeli civilians. The rockets landed in an open field in southern Israel and no one was injured. Israel has faced an increase in rocket and incendiary balloon attacks in the last few weeks – most notably after US President Donald Trump released his “Deal of the Century” Israeli-Palestinian peace plan. Palestinians rejected the deal and ramped up violent attacks. FULL REPORT
