PM at news conference: Israel will restore calm, defeat terror

Israeli Prime Minister Benyamin Netanyahu held a news conference in Jerusalem on Thursday evening regarding the current wave of Palestinian attacks, vowing to defeat terror, restore calm and security, and crack down on incitement by Islamic radicals. He said the terror, although unorganized, is the result of incitement by Hamas, the Palestinian Authority, Israel’s Islamic movement and several countries in the region. He added that Israel is acting on all fronts against both terror and incitement. The prime minister was accompanied by Defense Minister Moshe Yaalon, Chief of Staff Gady Eisenkot, Internal Security Minister Gilad Erdan and interim Police Chief Bentzi Sao.
