According to the IDF’s Spokesperson’s unit, more rockets fell inside the Gaza Strip than hit Israeli towns and cities during Operation Protective Edge.
The army estimates that 119 rockets fired by Palestinian factions exploded in Gaza, while 116 hit urban areas in Israel.
Over 3,000 rockets in total were fired from Gaza toward Israel, with the bulk falling in unpopulated areas or intercepted by the Iron Dome defense system.
