The Palestinian Islamic Jihad's military wing, Al Quds Brigades, fired on Tuesday a Russian-made missile at the Israeli-occupied Majdal city marking the first such an attack since the start of the Palestinian uprising. The brigades said in a communique that the Grad missile was fired this morning, noting that Israel did not announce the attack to find out more about the missile.It said that the news were held back until reports of the attack were broadcast by the Israeli television. The Israeli television report said a Katyusha rocket was fired from northern Gaza towards Majdal city and said there were no casualties reported. The Palestinian operation came in retaliation for the ongoing Israeli occupation and Israeli army crimes against the "mojahideen".
