Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu updated Opposition Leader Shaul Mofaz, Thursday evening, about the Pillar of Defense counter-terror operation. The two discussed the operation and a number of security subjects.

During their meeting, Mofaz said he gives "full backing to the prime minister on the policy of targeted killings [of terrorists -ed.] until Israel regains its power of deterrence against terror organizations and the firing of missiles at Israeli cities is stopped."
