Security Cabinet: Rules of the Game Have Changed
(Ynet News) Itamar Eichner - Israel's Security Cabinet decided Thursday to change its handling of the rampant violence at the Gaza border fence. Nevertheless, the political echelon still views reaching a ceasefire agreement with the mediation of Egypt and UN envoy to the Middle East Nickolay Mladenov as an option. The Cabinet instructed the IDF to gradually intensify the response to breaching attempts along the security fence and to the launching of incendiary balloons. Security Cabinet minister Yoav Gallant said Thursday, "The rules of the game are about to change [against Hamas in Gaza]. We won't accept violence on the Gaza border fence and the continuation of the kite terrorism."
