Israel to “Exact Price” for Eilat Rocket Attack: Netanyahu

Zionist Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu vowed on Sunday to "exact a price" from the Gaza fighters who recently fired missiles from Sinai at the southern city of Eilat.

Zionist Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu vowed on Sunday to "exact a price" from the Gaza fighters who recently fired missiles from Sinai at the southern city of Eilat.

Netanyahu"Last week missiles were fired from Sinai at Eilat," Netanyahu said at the start of his weekly cabinet meeting shortly before the arrival of US Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel.

"Those who fired them are apparently a terror squad that departed Gaza and used the territory of Sinai to attack an Israeli city,” he added, indicating that “we will not accept this and we will exact a price -- this has been our consistent policy the past four years and it will serve us in this case as well," he said in remarks relayed by his bureau.

On Wednesday, two rockets were fired from Egypt's Sinai Peninsula at Eilat, hitting inside the occupied territories but causing no casualties.
