This morning at 9am (Israel time), Israel’s security cabinet accepted the Egyptian ceasefire proposal, a goal that was and remains putting an end to rocket fire from Gaza on our cities, and providing the citizens of Israel with the peace and quiet to which they are entitled. After Hamas & Palestinian Islamic Jihad rejected the Egyptian proposal for a ceasefire, and launched 50 rockets at Israel, we resumed operations in Gaza to protect our people. No country would sit idly by while its civilian population is subjected to terrorist rocket fire. Israel is no exception. We thank the international community for their unequivocal condemnation of Hamas rocket fire on Israeli cities and for their clear-cut support for Israels right to self-defense.
