    Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu also met yesterday with heads of local authorities in the Gaza Strip. He explained that in light of the escalation, Israel is preparing for the possibility of a round of fighting. "We have adopted a fire law as a rocket law. We have been working for ten days in a row to bomb the infrastructure of Hamas and terrorist organizations. We are also imposing various sanctions in areas that are important to Hamas as well," he said.

    Netanyahu warned the Hamas and Islamic Jihad leadership of the developments, hinting at the possibility of targeted assassinations. "Hamas will make a very big mistake if it continues to do so. It is already getting an indication of where it will lead, it will surely remember where it led and I hope the Islamic Jihad will also remember where it led," he said, "We did not spare any means, including by chance. "The need for the development of the campaign, even for targeted assassinations, and even today we have no such limit."
