Ashdod mayor downplays latest rocket fire, says truce still on

Citing the IDF Home Front Command, Ashdod Mayor Yechiel Lasry says the recent rocket fire was “isolated” and doesn’t undermine the truce between Israel and Gaza terror groups.

“The fire in the past hour was isolated, and does not violate the ceasefire agreement with Islamic Jihad,” he assures residents in a Facebook post, urging them to keep on with their daily routines.
