Minister Yisrael Katz made it clear on Thursday that Israel is working on the Gaza border according to a clear and orderly policy.
Interviewed by Israeli public radio, Katz said, "From the point of view of the Israeli government, the policy is very clear, there is no difference between Ashkelon, Sderot, the communities of the regional councils in the Gaza vicinity and Tel Aviv." He added, "Hamas is trapped. It is trying to break this siege from a position of weakness."
