Bennett on shooting from Gaza: "The lightning story is irrelevant, whoever aims missiles at us will be held responsible" | Israel today

The government is now convening (Sunday) for a meeting against the background of the surge in corona morbidity.

Among other things, the ministers will also discuss the establishment of a resilience center in Netivot, unemployment benefits and religious services, after the kashrut reform was launched today.

Prime Minister Bennett said of the shooting from Gaza: "Tonight the Air Force attacked a series of targets in a Hamas rocket production complex in Khan Yunis.

In addition, the IDF attacked a number of Hamas positions on the Gaza border.

This attack is in response to the rocket fire yesterday from the Gaza Strip to the shores of the Mediterranean.

I want to make something clear here - all the stories of Hamas' lightning and thunder, which repeat themselves winter after winter, are no longer relevant.

"Whoever directs missiles at the State of Israel is responsible."

On the spread of the corona he said: "As for the omicron - we all already feel the increase in infection and we are likely to see a doubling, then a doubling of doubling in the coming days. Let it be clear, this is how it works. Tens of thousands of verified people a day in the near future. Along with the expected load in the hospitals, it should be remembered that even a situation of tens of thousands verified people a day is very difficult to manage logistically. These are numbers that the world did not know,

"In conclusion, the storm is coming to us these days really. It will be difficult, but with the right and responsible behavior, together, we will overcome it," he said.

Tourism Minister Joel Razvozov demanded a cabinet meeting: 'It's time to end the isolation of vaccinated Israelis returning from abroad.'Ve no other medical value.

I look forward, like solve the Israeli isolation, and in my estimation it should be this week, will allow parallel vaccinated Return to Israel "Because despite the aid package, the tourism industry and the economy will not be able to continue to bear the burden."

To this, Prime Minister Bennett replied: "It will probably happen this week and we will reach the infection numbers that at the time were said to bring about this change."

"Cancel the list of red countries this week"

This morning, the Knesset's Constitution Committee discussed the green label regulations for cultural and prayer events in the open in the framework of the "new corona law," as well as the Exceptions Committee for entry and exit from Israel due to the corona. 

The chairman of the Constitution Committee, MK Gilad Karib, threatened not to approve the list of red states on Tuesday: "The policy of the Population and Immigration Authority is disproportionate. Things would have been done according to the Corona Law. We would not approve the regulations for you.

The government decided on its own to implement the Law of Entry into Israel instead of the Corona Law and if this policy continues - we will change it at the end of the month with the change of the law.

I heard this morning from the Ministry of Health that he does not find an epidemiological justification for these restrictions, so how can you prevent a CEO from attending his grandmother's funeral? ", Neither celebrating Novi Gad nor the revelry of Baba Sally. Despite the conclusions of the last hearing, you have not changed."

Were we wrong?

Fixed!
