Bennett said:
“The south is burning and the government is busy with elections.”
"I have killed many Arabs in my life, and there's no problem with that."

He added:
“The government’s policy, according to which we do not eliminate terrorists who send explosive balloons [into Israel], endangers lives and harms our deterrence.”
Meanwhile, Eshkol Regional Council head Gadi Yarkoni also expressed frustration with the government.
