Bennett: Army must shoot at flaming kite flyers, not near them

Education Minister Naftali Bennett calls for the army to begin directly targeting flaming kite flyers in the Gaza Strip rather than use warning fire to deter them.

“Explosive kites and burning balloons are not a children’s toy. They are a deadly weapon meant to kill our kids,” he says during his Jewish Home party’s weekly Knesset faction meeting.

“We must stop shooting near the target and move to shooting directly at it,” Bennett adds.
