Hamas will pay heavy price if it attacks again, IDF source
Israel’s increased deterrence since Cast Lead remains, has prevented the terrorist organization from launching a major attack so far.
The IDF will respond with significantly more force than it did during Operation Cast Lead in the event of a major Hamas attack on Israel, a senior IDF source warned on Sunday.
Any future large-scale operation against Hamas in Gaza would entail a broader ground operation, the source added, partly because Hamas is stocking up on a growing number rockets that threaten the Israeli home front.
