Metula Mayor David Azoulai accuses the government and the IDF Northern Command of trying “to normalize” a situation of occasional rocket fire from the north, after launches from Lebanon this morning.

“We won’t allow them to normalize this. I call on Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and of course IDF Northern Command head Maj. Gen. Ori Gordin to act offensively and make it so that not one bullet is fired ever again at northern communities,” he tells the Ynet news site.

“This is a failure, this is exactly the policy of containment of October 7. Instead of dealing with nonsense, start providing security to the country’s residents,” he says.
