Israeli Defence Minister Yoav Gallant added that Hamas had made "a grave mistake" by launching "a war" against the country.“It is terrorism in its most despicable form. Israel has the right to defend itself against such heinous attacks.”The latest violence comes two days after deadly fighting between Israel and Islamic Jihad militants in the coastal enclave of Gaza was halted by a truce.
