IDF confirms Palestinian rocket fire from Jenin, says no Israeli towns threatened
Emanuel (Mannie) Fabian is The Times of Israel's military correspondent.
The Israel Defense Forces confirms Palestinians in the northern West Bank attempted to launch rockets at Israeli towns this morning.
The IDF says one of the rockets landed in Palestinian-controlled territory in the northern West Bank. The second apparently failed to launch, footage showed.
“The rocket did not pose a threat to communities in the area,” the IDF says.
No injuries or damage are caused.
The military says forces reached the scene of the launch near the West Bank city of Jenin and launched searches for the suspects.
Palestinians are still attempting to launch crude rockets from the Jenin area at nearby settlements, a video published by the so-called Al-Ayyash Batallion an hour ago shows. Last month, IDF troops found a launcher in the village of Nazlat Zayd. pic.twitter.com/fbCFIyCwJx
