Netanyahu Cuts U.S. Trip Short After Rockets Hit Israeli Home

HeadlineMar 25, 2019

Israeli authorities reported rockets fired from Gaza struck a home in Israel near Tel Aviv Monday, injuring at least seven people. They said Hamas is responsible for the attack, but the group has not claimed responsibility. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said he will cut short his trip to Washington, D.C., and fly back after a meeting with President Trump some time today. “[Israel] will respond forcefully,” he said. Netanyahu had been scheduled to speak at the annual policy conference of the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, or AIPAC, on Tuesday.
