Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu addressed the attack at Ramot Junction in Jerusalem from the Air Force bunker, stating that "eliminating these two terrorists is not enough, going after supporters and accomplices is also not enough. My directive is to forcefully target terror nests. We have already eliminated terror nests in three refugee camps. We simply evacuated the population from there and flattened all terrorist infrastructure - and my directive is to do this in additional terror nests." Netanyahu also referred to the demolition of high-rise buildings in Gaza City, declaring that "this is just the prelude to the main powerful operation, so I tell Gaza residents: you have been warned, get out of there."
