Minister Ofir Akunis (Likud) estimated in an interview with Reshet Bet radio on Thursday morning that there will be a large and complex military operation in Gaza sooner or later.

"We reach out our hand for peace and instead get sometimes suicide bombers, sometimes knife attacks, and sometimes one type of slaughter or another. With terrorist organizations you must speak their language - first and foremost, deal them a very strong blow from which they will not recover for many years," Akunis said.
