Rockets from Gaza

"In these moments, we are all with the residents of the surrounding area and the security forces.”

Iron Dome was not launched as the rockets were headed to an unpopulated area.

Many southern Israeli residents had already resolved to spend the night in their safe spaces in anticipation of a possible rocket attack.

“Our enemies will discover, again, that at moments of truth, the citizens of Israel stand united and unified, and back the actions of the IDF and the other security services to defend our country and our people."

Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich: "In these moments we leave all disputes, accusations, and political considerations and unite against our enemies."

According to the IDF, at least seven surface-to-air rockets were launched at southern Israel, all of them exploding in mid-air, plus two that were fired towards the Mediterranean Sea.

One rocket launch was detected by the Israel Defense Forces. The projectile was shot down by the Iron Dome aerial defense system.

The siren activated in the communities of Givim, Ivim, Nir Am, and Or Ha’Ner, in addition to the city of Sderot and its nearby Sapir College.

The attack followed the launch by Gaza terrorists of an Iranian-made 107mm Fajr-1 missile, aimed at a heavily populated area in southern Israel.

One Israeli woman in her 50s was transported to a hospital after she slipped and fell while running to a bomb shelter.

The terror factory was located just dozens of meters away from residential buildings and a hotel.

Multiple rockets were launched from Gaza, just before midnight on Thursday.

One rocket was fired at Israel from Gaza late Tuesday night, but did not trigger a Red Alert incoming rocket siren because it did not clear the border security fence.

Red Alert apps did not receive the notification. No interceptors were launched.

The alert was triggered in the communities of Nirim, Ein Ha'Shosha and Kissufim.

According to the Observatory, this was the 19th Israeli attack on Syrian territory since the beginning of 2022.

“Amid the tension and worry that accompanied the last few days, receiving a call about a birth brought me comfort and joy.”

What the heck is wrong with these people?

64% said Lapid did very well to good in handling the war, and only 17% said very badly to quite bad.

It's a busy tale of what amounted to very few but incredibly intense minutes.

It’s OK, friends, our brave soldiers and pilots do not avoid killing children for fear of bad press.

Israel was unafraid to squeeze the Gazans when it came to halting humanitarian support during the clashes.

Israel has rejected PIJ's demands to release Bassam al-Saadi, the group's commander in Jenin, taken into custody last week.

Gazan's are being pressured to not post photos and videos from the deaths caused by Islamic Jihad.

The Erez Crossing was closed down in advance of Operation Breaking Dawn, thus preventing further human and other damage that could have taken place.

Israel Police sources say current intelligence indicates that riots are not expected to break out in Israel’s mixed cities.

At the time PIJ fired a rocket barrage, Gazan social media reported a "children's massacre" in Jabaliya, saying five children were killed.

What are PIJ terrorists firing at Israel - rockets or missiles? And what are Israel Air Force combat pilots firing at PIJ terrorist targets in Gaza?

IDF: The tragic deaths of Gazan children in Jabaliya could have been the result of a failed rocket launch. The IDF is investigating the event.
