Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has warned that those who attack Israel will pay a heavy price, saying the fighting could continue for some time.

Hamas then fired rockets at Jerusalem, and a spokesman for the group said the attack on Jerusalem was a response to Israel’s “crime and aggression” on the ground, “a message that the enemy must know.” He also threatened more attacks by Hamas if Israeli forces re-entered Jerusalem’s Al-Aqsa Mosque or expelled Palestinians.
