Israel warns Hamas: Stop fire balloon attacks or face more strikes
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Israel Katz warned that Israel will renew broad-scale airstrikes in the Gaza Strip if Hamas doesn't stop the launch of incendiary kites and balloons.
After a situational assessment this evening, they stated that "Israel warns Hamas that if the launches toward Israel do not cease immediately, the IDF will act to increase targeted strikes against those responsible for the launches and will evacuate the population from areas used as launch sites for kites, drones, and balloons."
"The Prime Minister clarified that there will be no return to the state of affairs prior to October 7. Israel will not allow the Hamas terrorist organization or any other element in the Gaza Strip to threaten our communities again and compromise our citizens' sense of security."
