Defense Minister Yoav Gallant, following an assessment with IDF officials on the deadly Houthi drone attack on Tel Aviv, says Israel will respond.
“The defense establishment is working to immediately strengthen all defense systems, and will settle the score with anyone who harms the State of Israel or directs terror against it,” he says, in remarks provided by his office.
Gallant met with IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Herzi Halevi, head of the Operations Directorate Maj. Gen. Oded Basiuk, head of the Intelligence Directorate Maj. Gen. Aharon Haliva, the Israeli Air Force’s chief of staff Brig. Gen. Omer Tischler and the head of the Intelligence Directorate’s research division, Brig. Gen. Ofir Mizrahi Rosen.
