    Lapid: World must understand that tunnel is only to murder innocents

    Yesh Atid head Yair Lapid has commented on the discovery of new tunnels near Gaza.

    "The IDF and security forces prevented a serious disaster and I want to encourage their bold actions," he said. "It's important to remember and to remind the world that the tunnel had one purpose - to murder innocent children and women inside of Israel."

    "The UN Security Council and the international community must understand that the tunnels pose a serious threat, just like rockets and terror attacks. The world must support any response Israel makes against the tunnel threat, as it is a ground invasion of the State of Israel."
