Israeli Defence Minister Israel Katz instructs IDF to retaliate with 'great force' against any Hamas attacks

Jerusalem, Oct 9 (UNI) Israeli Defence Minister Israel Katz said that he has instructed the IDF to "respond with great force" against any attempt by Hamas to harm Israeli troops in the Gaza Strip, as the government is set to vote on the Trump deal for reaching a ceasefire in the war-ravaged territory.
Katz had held an assessment with IDF Chief of Staff Lt Gen Eyal Zamir and other top officers, ahead of the security cabinet vote and full cabinet meetings in the evening, with both expected to approve the ceasefire deal due to wide support among Knesset officials, reports Times of Israel.
"The defence minister instructed the IDF to respond with great force to any threat and any attack by the Hamas terror organisation against our forces during the interim stage before the government's decision and until the implementation of the agreement," Katz's office stated.
