As such, they need to all be returned within a given time period (very short) or Hamas should face being bombed out of Gaza. Innocents die in wars on both sides, but it’s time for the US and western nations to shut up and allow Israel to do what needs to be done – for all of us.

The IDF responded by firing at the sources of the gunfire. In both cases, the IDF forces stayed within the agreed ceasefire lines.
