(MENAFN) An Israeli minister has urged for "targeted assassinations" of the Palestinians who fly burning kites into the occupied territories as well as commanders of the Hamas resistance movement.
Gilad Erdan, the occupation's public security minister, said on Tuesday that the snipers, who have been shooting Palestinian protesters in Gaza over the past weeks upon the Israeli military's order, should also target the kite flyers.
The minister blamed the Palestinian Hamas resistance movement, which runs Gaza, for the sending of burning kites into the occupied territories, saying, "The fact that Hamas is enabling the shooting and the sending of the kites means we must return to targeted assassinations, and the kite launchers and Hamas commanders should be targeted for killing."
"Every attack will be met with a severe response. Kite terror is very serious, and whoever sends them should fear for their life," he further said.
