Following the overnight raid against the Lion's Den terror group in Nablus, Defense Minister Benny Gantz visited the Regional Division of the West Bank.
"I came here after an assessment of the situation with the IDF Chief of Staff and the head of the Shin Bet. Beyond closely monitoring the events during the night, I came to receive an overview of the overnight performance and of the preparations for continuing operations in the West Bank, whose purpose is to protect the civilians of Israel.
"IDF, Shin Bet, and Border Police forces operate 24 hours a day in every place necessary," he continued. "We will not live with the reality of terror in any of our operational fronts.
"Whoever tries to harm the lives of Israeli civilians will end either in jail or in the grave, there will not be refuge cities for terrorists."
