"A residential building, a missile strike. Civilians died and some are still under the rubble. We’re not just repeating this story, this is how we live every day in our country. A country bordering absolute evil as a neighbor. A country that must overcome this evil in order to prevent the repetition of such tragedies ... Sincere condolences to the relatives and friends of the victims. We will find them and make them pay. They do not deserve a pardon."
