MK Shuli Mualem Refaeli, chairman of the Jewish Home Front faction called for a harsh reaction after Hamas fired two rockets at Beersheba and Gush Dan.
"We must strike a hard and painful blow on Hamas and its leaders who have crossed the border - literally - to act with determination and force in order to restore the Israeli warning that has eroded, and of course the security of the residents of the south," said Mualem. "Israel does not want war, but it must do everything to protect its citizens and borders."
