TOKYO: Israel was ready to use military action in Gaza as part of its preemptive measures, an Israeli minister said after the al-Quds attack.

"Terror and smuggling are the two grounds for Israeli military action in Gaza," Israel’s Environment Minister Gideon Ezra said during a visit to Tokyo.

"If there will be no terror or smuggling we will not need to act. But if we do have to resort to military action, we'll do it without any hesitation," he said.

A Palestinian on Wednesday killed 4 people and wounded 45 more as he rammed a bulldozer into buses and cars before being shot dead by Israeli police, who branded it a "terrorist attack".
