Maj. Gen. (res.) Eliezer Marom, former commander of the Israeli Navy, sharply criticized the rioters in Kusra, whom he called "a small group of people that manages to stain an entire country." He called for transferring the handling of the incident to the Israel Police, arguing that IDF soldiers do not act as policemen. Marom emphasized that one of the residents of Kusra who was harmed is an American citizen, adding an international dimension. At the same time, he dismissed concerns about Hamas's strengthening, claiming there is no danger of another October 7, due to the IDF's presence on the yellow line and a significant security perimeter.
