National Unity leader Benny Gantz, commented on the direct hit of a rocket in Rehovot that killed one person and injured five.

"I would like to offer my condolences to the family of the person killed by the rocket hit in Rehovot, and wish the injured a speedy recovery. The campaign continues, and it is important that we all obey the directives of the Home Front Command anywhere, at any time. It is true that we have the best air defense system in the world, but it is very important that we also take proper personal and family defense."

"We will say to our enemies - those who think they will get a picture of victory - will pay the price. Our security forces know the job - and the entire Israeli society is united behind them," Gantz said.
