Security cabinet meets

The security cabinet has convened for its second meeting today.

Earlier Tuesday, the cabinet gave the go-ahead for the army to call up 40,000 reserve soldiers as sources close to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu warned that a ground operation is on the table.

Since its last meeting, dozens of rockets have been shot at Israel and forces have also fought off at least one infiltration attempt from Gaza.

Israeli planes have also continued to bombards targets in Gaza, hitting over 150 targets on Tuesday alone, according to the IDF.
