MK Oren Hazan responded to the decision to provide personal security for him in the wake of Hamas threats against him.
Hazan said that "security considerations are in the hands of security forces and I rely on them knowing to perform their work in the best and safest possible way.
"The threats will not deter me. I will continue to do whatever is necessary with even more force than before for the sake of the people of Israel and the land of Israel. I will act to stop visits of families of Hamas terrorists until they understand in Gaza that without returning our boys- IDF soldiers Oron Shaul and Hadar Goldin and the civilian Abra Mengistu, there won't be one day of quiet for Hamas terrorists in Israel."
