Israel's Defense Minister Yoav Gallant said the country's response to Iran's missile attack would be “precise, painful, and unexpected.” “We will not tolerate violations of our sovereignty and attempts to harm Israeli citizens and infrastructure; we will not sit idly by and ignore them”. He also said Israel has no interest in opening a new front. Gallant said conditions are being created to allow northern residents to return home, but it will take time.
