News Brief

(IsraelNN.com) MK Yitzchak Ben-Yisrael (Kadima) said Thursday that Wednesday’s fatal terrorist attack on the Nachal Oz fuel depot near Gaza was a sign that the government’s policy in Gaza has failed.  Other recent incidents near the border show a need for a change in policy as well, he said.

Ben-Yisrael called on the government to take a more active approach to fighting Gaza terrorism.  “We have to return the deterrence that we lost in the south due to the ongoing lack of effective action,” he said.
