Housing minister says Israel may kill Hamas leaders if rioting continues
Housing Minister Yoav Galant hints Israel would kill the Hamas leadership if the terror group persists in organizing the protests at the Israel-Gaza border.
Speaking at a security conference, Galant, who is a member of the security cabinet, also says Israel’s security would be strengthened by improving the humanitarian situation in the Gaza Strip.
“If Hamas continues to make mistakes, [Hamas’s Gaza chief] Yihya Sinwar and senior officials will be putting their lives at risk,” he says. “Hamas is an angel of death for the innocent residents of the Gaza Strip.”
