MK Benny Gantz, head of the National Unity party, has expressed his support for the IDF as it launches Operation Shield and Arrow.
"I said last week and say again now: Our enemies miscalculated. I welcome this important action taken overnight in Gaza and the maintenance of a proactive policy. We give our full support to the IDF and security forces in all their operations, and I hope that the government knows how to combine this as needed with determination and responsibility as we go forward."
