Rivlin: 'we will not accept citizens living under missile fire; determined to win'

President Reuven (Ruvi) Rivlin said Tuesday evening that Israel will not accept the current situation in which terror groups from the Gaza Strip continue to threaten Israeli citizens with missile fire.

“We will not accept a reality in which hundreds of thousands of citizens continue to live under the threat of missile fire, and in which their daily routine is disrupted, " said President Rivlin at a ceremony at the Weizmann Institute of Science where he received an Honorary Doctorate. "We are determined to win, and to hit the enemy wherever it is hiding".
