Member of Knesset Micky Rosenthal (Zionist Union) has questioned Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu's Sunday-evening announcement that he has ordered the deduction of money to compensate Gaza-area communities for kite-arson damage from funds transfered to the Palestinian Authority.

Writing on Twitter, Rosenthal asked, "Does the PA rule in Gaza, so that offsetting money will stop kite terrorism? After all, it will only encourage Hamas to continue to screw the PA! And anyway, all previous attempts to deduct failed for fear of a breach of the Oslo Accords."
