Six new "rockets of love" sent from Gaza to Israel, no reports of injury or damage



Feel the love.

From The Jerusalem Post June 24 by Yaakov Lapin

Six rockets fired from Gaza towards Israel's South

Six projectiles thought to have been fired by Islamic Jihad in Gaza were launched at the regional councils of Ashkelon and Bnei Shimon late on Sunday night. No injuries or damages were reported.

Four were fired towards the Bnei Shimon council area and Netivot. Iron Dome intercepted two rockets fired towards the Ashkelon Regional Council.

"Code Red" sirens were heard in regional councils of Rahat, Netivot, Bnei Shimon and Lahavim. The IDF launched searches of the area to find rockets' landing sites.

The rockets have shattered a lengthy period of calm enjoyed by civilians in southern Israel.

Early on Wednesday morning, "Code Red" warning sirens sounded in Ashkelon and surrounding areas.

Shortly after the sirens went off, three rockets fell in open areas, landing in Palestinian areas, Israel Radio reported. The rocket attack marked the first time Palestinian terrorists in Gaza have attempted to strike Israel for nearly two months.
