Netanyahu said Israel is “in the midst of a campaign,” and said defense officials “hope it will be as short as possible.”

A drone was seen hovering over Abu al-Ata’s home and those of three other senior PIJ officials about two weeks prior to the attack.

“We are determined to fight to defend our country ... Therefore, they have but one choice – to stop these attacks or take more and more blows. The choice is theirs."

There is a kind of rhythm that takes over the country once the government finally does something about the incessant terror attacks from Gaza on Israel’s civilians.

The IDF has attacked PIJ training compounds, underground weapon manufacturing sites and weapon storage facilities, among other targets.

Netanyahu called PIJ terror commander Baha Abu Ata a “ticking time bomb” and said his assassination had been approved by Israel’s Security Cabinet 10 days prior.

This group is the military wing of the Popular Resistance Committees terror group in Gaza, and like Hamas and PIJ, is funded and equipped by Iran.

Iran has provided drones to the Islamic Jihad terror group.

Gaza's children are happily skipping off to school, and Israeli children are racing off to bomb shelters.

Although PIJ has acknowledged its operatives were responsible for two of the three rocket attacks this week, the group has yet to turn its members over to Hamas for interrogation.

Tlaib's complaint: "The delegation would have seen first-hand. Yeah, why walls are destructive, not productive. They could've asked the people in Bethlehem how walls cut people off, away from economic opportunities."

At least seven fires broke out Tuesday in forest land and in agricultural fields in southern Israel due to arson terror from incendiary balloons...

It is very likely Israeli soldiers will see much the same activity at the security fence along the Gaza border in another 36 hours.

Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad terrorist leaders called for the “liberation of all Palestine” -- as usual.

“We need to bravely recognize and address the phenomenon whereby entire generations are living and growing up in the country under a continuous security threat."

The Egyptian mediators plan to stay in an attempt to maintain calm in Gaza, and prevent another military escalation against Israel.

Abu Hamza said military production units began working following the cease-fire to replace their rocket arsenal.

"If the occupation changes its mind or evades ... there is no doubt that the resistance will have the last word."

The number of fallen IDF soldiers stands at 23,741 since the birth of the state. Some 3,150 civilians have lost their lives in terror attacks.

The security cabinet instructed the IDF to continue attacks in Gaza, and to increase the intensity of those attacks.

The incident indicates a very serious escalation in the conflict with Hamas and the Palestinian Islamic Jihad.

Iran wishes to keep Israel busy around its borders with proxy threats, on the defensive, and deterred.

IDF combat soldiers also arrested a suspect who crossed the perimeter fence in the southern Gaza Strip.

Bottom line: Israel must agree to all Hamas demands regardless, or face renewed rocket and arson terror attacks.

The move comes in response to the “calm” allegedly maintained by Gaza’s ruling Hamas terrorist organization this weekend.

The terrorist targets included a Hamas headquarters building, the Hamas Internal Security Ministry, and the office of Hamas chief Ismail Haniyeh.
