Rocket barrage on southern Israel
Gaza terrorists fired at least 14 rockets in four different barrages
towards the city of Sderot and the area on Friday night, shattering the
calm of the Sabbath.
Around 10:00 p.m. local time, “red alert” sirens were heard in the
Sderot and Sha’ar Hanegev Regional Council, the first in a series of
sirens heard in the area.
The IDF confirmed that 10 to 12 launchings were identified toward
southern Israel. Some of the rockets were intercepted by the Iron Dome
anti-missile system.
The remaining rockets are believed to have exploded in open regions.
There were no reports of physical injuries, but at least seven people in
Sderot were treated for shock. There were no reports of damages.
On Wednesday, at around 11:15 p.m., a rocket was fired from Gaza at the Eshkol Regional Council in the Gaza envelope.
The IDF's Iron Dome aerial defense system launched one interceptor
towards the projectile, but the rocket was not intercepted and exploded
in an open area.
No physical injuries or damages were reported.
IDF aircraft later retaliated by attacking eight terrorist targets in
three military compounds belonging to the Hamas terrorist organization.
