Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu defended the IDF's actions on the Gaza border, arguing that "We are defending our families, and you would do exactly the same."
In a video in English on his Facebook page, the prime minister said he agreed with many statements made by Hamas leaders about the protests on the Gaza border.
"Mahmoud al Zahar, a co-founder of Hamas, said that calling the actions of Palestinians on the Gaza border 'peaceful' is a clear 'deception.' His words. 'This is not peaceful resistance,' he said. I agree. Shooting guns and lobbing explosives at Israelis isn't peaceful at all," Netanyahu said.
