| [GEO.TV] The Israeli military said that "approximately 10 projectiles" fired from the Gazoo ...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with a rusty iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppressionand disproportionate response... Strip within a few minutes on Sunday crossed into Israeli territory, with most of them intercepted. "Following the sirens that sounded at 21:01-21:02 (1801-1802 GMT) in the Lakhish area, approximately 10 projectiles were identified crossing into Israeli territory from the Gaza Strip. Most of them were successfully intercepted," a military statement said.
Hamas fired 10 rockets at southern Israel on Sunday night in the largest such barrage in months. Five of the ten rockets were intercepted by Israel’s air defenses, the Israel Defense Forces said, but at least one of the other five hit Ashkelon, causing damage. A 30-year-old man was lightly injured by shrapnel, and taken to the city’s Barzilai Hospital for treatment. The Magen David Adom emergency services said that two other people were hurt while running to shelters, while several people were treated for acute anxiety following the attack. The rockets were launched toward the coastal cities of Ashkelon and Ashdod shortly after 9 p.m. from central Gaza’s Deir al-Balah, an area where the IDF has not been operating. Hamas claimed responsibility for the rocket barrage shortly after it was launched. Israel immediately vowed that the terror group would pay a heavy price. Defense Minister Israel Katz — after speaking with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who was en route to the US — said he had ordered the IDF to expand its renewed offensive against Hamas. Following the attack, the IDF’s Arabic-language spokesman, Col. Avichay Adraee, issued an evacuation warning for Palestinian civilians in the Deir al-Balah area, saying that it was a “final warning” before the IDF carried out strikes there. The military then said it carried out a drone strike targeting the rocket launcher used to launch the barrage. The salvo of rockets was the largest attack launched by Hamas since the collapse of the ceasefire and hostage deal last month. | |
