Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, this afternoon (Monday, 21 July 2014), at
an IDF base in the south, held a security meeting with Defense Minister
Moshe Yaalon, IDF Chief-of-Staff Lt.-Gen. Benny Gantz and GOC Southern
Command Maj.-Gen. Sammy Turgeman.
Prime Minister Netanyahu said, "The IDF is making progress in the field
according to plan and the operation will be expanded until the goal is
achieved – restoring quiet to the citizens of Israel for a long period. The
achievements in the fighting in the field are outstanding. I am impressed by
the operation to hit the tunnels; it is achieving results beyond what we
expected. On behalf of the people of Israel, I tell all the soldiers in the
field that we are proud of their strength of spirit and that we pray for
their well-being. A military campaign is a complex thing and it has
difficult moments. I am certain that together, united, we will reach the
goal."
