Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleOffers to broker a ceasefire between Israel and the terrorists in Gaza are “currently not relevant, because Hamas continues to shoot rockets at Israeli citizens,” government sources in Jerusalem tell The Times of Israel.
The Israel Defense Forces’ response to the ongoing hail of missiles from the Strip “will continue to intensify,” the officials say.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will “do everything possible to return quiet for an extended period of time — be it through military or through diplomatic means,” they add.
