Netanyahu: Probing committee will prove Israel acted lawfully
None
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu opened a Cabinet meeting by making a speech on the committee elected to investigate the IDF raid on a Gaza-bound aid flotilla.
"Two principles guided us: First, maintaining the freedom of IDF soldiers to act and the credibility of the IDF investigation, and second, giving a credible and convincing response the responsible states in the international community," Netanyahu said. He added that the probe would prove Israel acted "lawfully, responsibly, and with total transparency". (Roni Sofer)
