Former deputy IDF Chief of Staff Maj.-Gen. (res.) Uzi Dayan warned Sunday the Katyusha attack on Netivot by Gaza terrorists earlier in the day signals a new level of danger to southern Israel.

“The danger is spreading to Be’er Sheva and Ashdod,” he told reporters. Dayan added that Israel "will not be able to prevent an Iranian explosion" if it does not respond to Grad missiles launched by Palestinian Authority terrorists in Gaza.
