Military says rocket warning sirens triggered by ‘failed’ rocket launch in Gaza
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleWarning sirens in the south were triggered by a “failed [rocket] launch” by Palestinian terrorists in Gaza, the military says, indicating the projectile landed in the Strip.
The rocket fire comes amid heightened tensions on the border that have seen regular arson attacks and rocket fire from Gaza, as well as nightly retaliatory strikes by Israel in the Hamas-ruled enclave.
Balloon-born incendiary devices launched from Gaza have sparked 35 fires in the south so far today, according to the Kan public broadcaster.
