Farmer whose greenhouse in Gaza-area community was set on fire by Gaza infiltrator describes the damage.
Udi Dreilich, the farmer from Moshav Netiv Ha'asara whose greenhouse was
set on fire by a terrorist from the Gaza Strip, said the damage was
estimated at hundreds of thousands of shekels.
"All the equipment I had, which I collected over the years - everything
was burned. This is a very serious as far as I’m concerned, and luckily
it did not end with casualties. I hope they will draw conclusions and
that it will not happen again," Dreilich told Kan 11.
The terrorist, who infiltrated Israel on Friday night and set fire to
the greenhouse, had already infiltrated between six and eight times
before. Sources in the defense establishment say that he is apparently
trying to get caught in order to enter Israeli prison.
The commander of the northern brigade of the Gaza Division, Col. Avi
Rosenfeld, visited Netiv Ha'asara, where residents were outraged at the
“unbearable ease with which a Palestinian enters and causes tremendous
damage. And what if he was armed? " Colonel Rosenfeld promised them, "We
will beat them. We will learn from what we need to."
The terrorist penetrated some 700 meters into Israeli territory, setting
fire to a large storage room with equipment and a greenhouse. Dreilich
does not accept the IDF's claim that the terrorist was under
surveillance and claims there was a failure. "The residents are all over
the area, there are active businesses that work and citizens who come
from all over the country to buy seedlings and flowers," Dreilich said.
"It could have ended completely differently. What the army says is not
comforting."
