MK Maj. Gen. (Res.) Uzi Dayan participated in the Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee meetings in the Gaza vicinity.

"The picture that emerged requires an immediate response to an emergency," he said. "1. At the strategic level - parallel to the defensive response, to promote the offensive side of Hamas is not part of any solution, it is the problem that needs to be dealt with ... cutting off the head of the snake will spare us the need to handle all its arms.

2. Organizational level - In all the issues that have arisen today - economic, security and social - we must be 'responsible' 3. The technological level - the balloons can be dealt with in a way that they will not reach our territory and I undertake to deal with it."
