Israel's Eli Cohen calls on int'l community to condemn rocket attacks

Foreign Minister Eli Cohen called on the international community to condemn the rocket barrage that was fired from Lebanon into Israel earlier on Thursday in a statement published on Twitter.

"First day of Passover. As we sit at the holiday table, family and friends, Israel is facing rockets from south and north. This is not a coincidence. No one should test us, we will take all necessary measures to defend our country and people," Cohen said.

He added: "I call on the international community to issue a clear statement against those responsible for the attacks on Israel."
