Barak: 750,000 citizens in bomb shelters is unacceptable

Defense Minister Ehud Barak on Sunday said at the weekly cabinet meeting that "Hamas, from our point of view, is responsible for everything that happens in the [Gaza] Strip and for all of the [terrorist] organizations that operate there."
"We will not accept actions that harm our citizens, actions like the firing on the bus, or attempts to put three-quarter of a million citizens in bomb shelters."

"Hamas sustained a heavy blow, fortunately, nobody was injured by their fire. The IDF's strikes have been very effective and precise, and they sustained a heavy blow."
