"Coordinator of Government Activities in Territories" (COGAT) Gen. Kamil Abu Rukon posted on his "Almonsk" Facebook page in Arabic a direct message to Gaza residents, amid the reduction in fuel supply to Gaza

"Hostile and warlike elements, near and far, are dragging you to violence and to loss of stability and security. Islamic Jihad on an Iranian mission repeatedly undermines stability and harms the security of the region. The results, you will feel."

"The shooting at Israel and toward Israeli civilians will be responded to appropriately. Israel will protect its citizens, whatever your leaders and allies do. Apparently the organizations in Gaza favor the good of Iran over your own good. The deterioration of stability and harm to security will bring destruction and harm to the residents of the strip, who will continue to walk in darkness, at the fault of those who impose fear and darkness on the strip," he added.
