IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Herzi Halevi tells reservist officers at the Southern Command base in Beersheba that the military is focusing efforts on targeting Hamas officials.
“In any area that we know there are Hamas members, Hamas leaders, even if there are restrictions, we strike… accurately and with great power,” Halevi says.
