Israeli authorities say a long-range rocket launched from the Gaza Strip has struck an area near Tel Aviv in central Israel, wounding seven people in the first such incident since the 2014 war in the Gaza Strip.
The incident took place in Mishmeret, an agricultural town north of Tel Aviv, in the early morning of March 25. The attack came a day after Israeli warplanes bombed the besieged enclave ahead of the anniversary of Gaza fence protests at the weekend.
We can confirm that #Hamas is responsible for firing a homemade rocket. It flew a distance of 75 miles across Israel and then destroyed this home: pic.twitter.com/nXytl8hcfl

According to the Israeli miltiary, the rocket launch was made from a Hamas military base in the southern part of the Gaza Strip.

A Egyptian delegation of negotiatros was reportedly sent to the Gaza Strip in order to de-escalate the sitaution. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu declared that he will soon return to Israel suspending his trip to the US.
Israeli troops and battle tanks are moving to the contact line with the Gaza Strip.
The situation is developing.
BUT………. dont they have the famous iron dome that not a mosquito can penetrate it?
The Iron Dome was undergoing maintenance , I understand.
It would of course be able to thwart mass missile attacks from Hezbollah, Syria, Iran and quite a few other nations that see Israel as a rather smelly brown stain. :)
Israel also has the US F35, so the standards of excellence within the IDF are well known. What could possibly go wrong for the squatters ?
:-) your guess is as good as mine.
HAHAHA u right! I learned a long time a go that Hamas is Israel! Hamas is to Israel what Al-Qaeda is to the USA (permission to attack and invade. Unlocks what Israel actually wants to do!)
I bought shares in a firm that exports toilet paper to Tel Aviv in response:) I have made a fortune in minutes, as the Israelis push past each other to buy a large supply of loo rolls :)
OK I feel safe now.
No one should ever de-escalate any situation against the Zionist regime. In fact everyone should work to inflame the situation till it implodes naturally and fixes everything. Everyone we can do this, lets just all work together and inflame the situation till the problem naturally resolves itself. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ElIP4GmSgQs
If a home made rocket traveled 75 miles through Israel air space and hit an urban area this is something to be noted. A Iron Dome failure? A new type of rocket? Maybe some iranian technology?
I was thinking Israeli spies in Gaza launched the rocket just in time for the Israeli elections to help Netanyahu win. It also ‘justifies’ Israel bombing the crap out of the Christian/Muslim Monotheist communities which make up 100% of the Gaza strip.
Either someone in Gaza smuggled in a cruise missile or it’s fake news. I would think (I am no expert), the missle flew low and not in a determinable parabolic curve that a simple rocket would use. Otherwise the Irondome has shown itself capable of intercepting most rockets it seems worthy. I noticed that the story is getting little attention in US press.
As the elections grow closer the false flags will intensify
Homemade? FFS… 75 MILES – 120KM? The only rocket in this range the IDF ever claimed Hamas possessed was a Chinese WS-2 knockoff – a Syrian-made M-302 or maybe a 333 mm Fadjr-5 clone.
So the ‘homemade’ 302 or 333 mm solid-fueled rocket was secretly manufactured in Gaza? Israel can detect and bomb a 60 mm mortar site between buildings, yet they missed the manufacture, placement and launch of an 18 ft. long solid-fueled rocket? Just… wow. If it’s a Chinese, Syrian or North Korean rocket, then Hamas was somehow able to smuggle one into Gaza undetected and kept it hidden for years. This is Gaza – the place is swarming with spies and informants. Where the hell do you hide an 18 ft. missile?
IF Hamas even had one to fire off, the Israelis would have the launch site pinpointed immediately (because everything is under radar surveillance) and at LEAST destroyed the mobile launcher and launch site.
Not only did they fail to detect this supposed missile launch, but failed to intercept a rocket that had to fly pretty much straight over Tel Aviv? Yeah… sorry. I know they’ll ‘update’ the story when people call out their bullshit, but this is just off the BS scale. Perfect distraction from the Golan land-theft outrage, and nicely-timed to garner sympathy in the US Congress for the ‘poor Israelis’ just as the Golan theft recognition bill comes up for a vote.

so your view is that it’s as fake as melania’s orgasms. yeah most certainly more than a possibility.
The usual false positive of the zionist Jews, they shot themselves, as when the swastikas were painted on the graves. Murderers who do not believe even when they are telling the truth.
