Despite an
Egyptian-brokered ‘ceasefire’ announced earlier this week, terrorists
continued to fire rockets at Israeli territory on Friday.
A Kassam rocket which was fired from Gaza at southern Israel on Friday afternoon landed in an open area in the Eshkol Regional Council. There were no physical injuries or damage.
The
terrorists took advantage of winter-like weather conditions in the area
to cover up the fact that they were firing a rocket, according to a
report on Channel 2 News.
A
Kassam rocket was also fired from Gaza towards Israel overnight
Thursday and exploded in an open area in the Eshkol Regional Council.
At
least five rockets and missiles were fired from Gaza into Israeli
territory throughout the day on Thursday, including a Grad missile fired at Ashdod on Thursday evening. While the Iron
Dome system successfully shot the missile out of the air before impact,
the attack caused concern among local officials and led to the closure of schools across the south.
On Thursday, when schools were open, a rocket hit near a school in Ofakim. No children were wounded in the attack.
The latest terror onslaught from Gaza began last Friday. Terrorists fired more than 200 rockets at Israeli cities in four days.
