Kadima party chairman and Knesset Opposition leader Tzipi Livni has issued a statement slamming the Katyusha rocket attack on Israel's northern region. The former Foreign Minister, who is currently in Moscow, told reporters, "We will not allow Katyusha rockets to be fired at Israel from Lebanon. International forces deployed in the region must do their job and enforce United Nations Resolution [ceasefire] 1701."

Livni served as Foreign Minister in the government of former Prime Minister Ehud Olmert during the 2006 Second Lebanon War.
