IDF spokesman Daniel Hagari delivered a statement to the media and referred to the war against Hamas and the airstrike on a mosque under which terrorists hid themselves in Jenin.Well it's good that this was taken care of, and shows the military realizes that even in the Judea/Samaria area, danger lurks.
"They desecrate holy places in the hope that they can get us to attack them. They use the civilian population and the symbols of Islam as a shield," he said.
Hagari said that the terror cell hiding under the mosque was planning a “murderous terror attack inside Israel” and was a "ticking time bomb."
"We increased the attacks overnight and eliminated dozens of Hamas terrorists - anyone who took part in the massacre is a top priority for elimination," he said.
"We will go to the next stage of the fighting under the best conditions - in accordance with the guidance of the political echelon," he added.
