Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu threatened Gaza's Hamas rulers on Saturday with a 'vigorous response' after militants used a drone to drop a bomb on the Israeli side of the Gaza-Israel perimeter fence.
The Israeli military said the targets included"offensive military equipment and two military sites" for the Islamic group's aerial unit, which it said was responsible for the drone attack.Earlier in the evening, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had threatened Hamas with a"vigorous response" for the drone attack.
Netanyahu is in the midst of a reelection campaign, with less than two weeks before a do-over vote after he failed to secure a parliamentary majority in April's election. Hamas, which has run Gaza since 2007, is known to be developing a drone program and has used it before for reconnaissance missions over the frontier and into Israel.
