Prime Minister Ehud Olmert said Wednesday morning that the IDF will continue to act against terrorists "so long as Hamas terrorists do not stop firing rockets" at Israel. No rocket attacks have been reported since approximately midnight Tuesday.
 
The Prime Minister is meeting with the Security Cabinet, which is discussing the situation in Gaza. The government ordered the IDF to remove ground troops from northern Gaza earlier this week prior to the visit of American Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, who is to meet with the Prime Minister later Wednesday.
