Five rockets fired from the Gaza Strip on Thursday were intercepted and responded with a series of air strikes by the Israeli military. The retaliatory attacks hit two Hamas camps, wounding five people, Palestinian security officials said.
Israel’s Iron Dome missile defence system shot down the missiles over the coastal city of Ashkelon, about 12 km north of Gaza.
No group has claimed responsibility for the rocket attacks but Israel says it holds the Palestinian ruling Islamist group Hamas responsible for all cross-border rocket fire.
Hamas is the enemy of the Palestinian people…it has refused to talk peace with its neighbors and has just brought endless suffering to its people…when will the Palestinians wake up to their war mongering leaders who create endless conflict with no hope for peace…
