PM praises Israeli resilience in face of ‘wave of terror’

Benjamin Netanyahu hails Israeli resilience in face of the ongoing deadly violence, during a visit to the Jerusalem police headquarters in the Russian Compound Wednesday.

“We are still in the midst of a wave of terror,” he says. “We will take firm action against terrorists, lawbreakers and inciters. We have bolstered our troops and using all methods necessary to fight this terrorism.

“In the war on terrorism, civilians are on the front lines and the greatest vigilance is required of them. I want to commend the courage and composure displayed by Israel’s citizens in recent days, as well as today in Jerusalem and Kiryat Gat. The objective of terrorism is to sow fear, and the first order of defeating terrorism is to show composure and resilience. We already knew these are difficult times, and we will overcome this wave of terrorism with determination, responsibility and unity.”
