<p>
&quot;Ladies and gentlemen, as of today, the Police Counter-Terrorism Unit is the Israel National Counter-Terrorism Unit. For many years, the unit&#39;s members and commanders have saved many lives in various operations, not all of which may be discussed. I tell you that we are in good hands,&quot; Israel&rsquo;s Prime Minister&ndash;Bennet said during his weekly cabinet meeting on Sunday.</p>
<p>
The allocated funding this year will be used to &quot;strengthen the capabilities and means of the unit, reinforce its combat abilities, increase personnel and upgrade its operation proficiency, with emphasis on weaponry and training infrastructures.&quot;</p>
<p>
Bennet had earlier said: &quot;I saw the unit members in action, practicing what they know how to do very well &ndash; taking control of a terrorist event with determination, efficiency and professionalism. Do not mess with them.&quot;</p>
