The Israel Defense Forces say that Hamas has been launching rockets from within humanitarian zones in Gaza at Israeli civilians.

“Yesterday, at 15:59, Hamas terrorists launched 12 rockets toward Israeli civilians in the city of Beersheba in southern Israel. The rockets were launched from near tents of evacuated Gazan civilians in Rafah in southern Gaza and from next to United Nations facilities,” the IDF says.

It also said that “at 12:52 yesterday, Hamas launched a rocket from inside a humanitarian zone. The rocket misfired, putting many Gazan civilians at risk.”
