Hamas blames Israel, says ‘no security’
Hamas late Tuesday took responsibility for the series of rocket salvoes, which included at least 8 rockets fired at the Tel Aviv area.
A senior Hamas official accused Israel for resuming the Gaza conflict and warned it will not be secure as long as Palestinians are not.
Shortly after the midnight truce deadline, senior Hamas official Ezzat al-Rishq warned: “Israel will not enjoy security so long as the Palestinian people do not, and it started it.”
