Lawmakers call for retaliation against Tehran after Iran violated the newly announced ceasefire, launching a ballistic missile at northern Israel.
“Tehran will tremble,” tweets far-right Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich, a member of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s security cabinet.
“Quiet will be answered with quiet, missiles will be answered with…?” tweets Otzma Yehudit lawmaker Limor Son Har-Melech.
“Three and a half hours after the US president announced a ceasefire, there is shooting from Iran toward northern Israel. We must not absorb it, we must not ignore it, we have to respond immediately,” posts opposition party Yisrael Beytenu chairman Avigdor Liberman.
“Any violation of [Iran’s] will be met with an appropriate response,” declares lawmaker Tali Gotliv, while her fellow Likud MK Avichai Boaron calls for strikes, “with full force,” against symbols of the Iranian regime.
