Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu: “I arrived today at the impact site in Rishon City. I spoke with the homeowners affected by the shelling from Iran – strong citizens, with a big heart, who don’t break even in the hardest moments.

“I told them clearly: We are making a tremendous effort to help in every way possible – with open generosity, and to reduce bureaucracy with swift action. Our goal is clear: to restore life to its course and rebuild here anew – with splendor.

 “I am proud of the mayors, the emergency forces, and above all, our citizens – who stand firm. This is the true strength of the State of Israel.”
