(Worthy News) – Newly appointed Defense Minister Naftali Bennett announced Tuesday a ‘special situation’ in the home front for communities within 80 kilometers (50 miles) of the Strip, which means special security measures would be put in place from the Gaza border communities, to Jerusalem, Tel Aviv and as far north as Raanana.
Bennett’s announcement came on the advice of defense officials and the directive is set to be valid for 48 hours, unless prematurely annulled by the government or the defense minister.
The announcement may indicate that the Israeli government believes the rocket fire from Gaza will continue at least in the next 48 hours. [ Source: Ynet News (Read More…) ]
