At least seven Israelis were wounded on May 5 when fighters from the Hamas Movement launched a barrage of rockets at an Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) site in the Kerem Shalom area on the triple Gaza Strip-Israel-Egypt border.
Hamas’ military wing, the Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Brigades, said in a brief statement that the attack was carried out using locally-made Rujum 114mm unguided rockets.
The IDF said that at least ten projectiles were launched from the city of Rafah in southern Gaza and struck Kerem Shalom. According to Hebrew media, seven people were wounded in the rocket attack with several of them listed in serious condition.
Following the attack, the IDF launched a series of airstrikes on Rafah and announced that it had shuttered the Kerem Shalom Crossing the Gaza for humanitarian aid trucks.
The rocket attack came amid a new round of indirect talks between Israel and Hamas on an agreement that would include a ceasefire and secure the release of Israelis captured during the October 7 surprise attack from Gaza and Palestinian prisoners from Israeli prisons. Reports suggest that at least some progress has been made, although Israel is still against a permanent ceasefire and wants to continue to occupy some parts of the Strip.
In fact, Israel is even still threatening to launch a ground operation in Rafah, where more than a million Palestinians are currently taking shelter.
The Israeli war on Gaza has so far claimed the lives of 34,683 Palestinians and left more than 78,018 others wounded, according to the latest update by the Hamas-run health ministry in the Strip. Most of the victims were women and children.
In addition to the high number of casualties, the Israeli war has pushed 85% of Gaza’s population into internal displacement amid acute shortages of food, clean water, and medicine, while 60% of the Strip’s infrastructure has been damaged or destroyed, according to the United Nations.
Hamas’ rocket attack on Kerem Shalom highlights the failure of the war. The IDF didn’t even manage to degrade the military capabilities of Hamas and other Palestinian armed factions in Gaza.

oh no, doing a genocide has a cost? how antisemitic to target israeli murderers
death and destruction to islam
death and destruction to islam
death and destruction to islam
keep manifestin’
adam betrayed god.
the foundation of critical thinking in regards to the current state of global happenings is to understand who’s in power, and what this power wants to establish. usa, russia, china, uk, eu etc. they are all strictly ruled by the eternally same nasty brute of hook-nosed demons. but slowly even inside usa & elsewhere people start to realize this frightening truth, see: https://kuty.me/wf8
what we are witnessing with the demo(c)rats/demon-rats & the repooplicans in the usa is basically the same thing that usa & russia represent. it is just 2 sides of the same pro-judaic coin. and just the regular guy from the street, the normal people, the pro-palestinian university students, the farmers, the mothers and children, the workers they are the force which can bring change !
the jews work together globally since day 1. judaism is satanism. there is no conflict between usa government, russian government,chinese government and eu government & israel. it is all jewish creations – meant to manipulate & stimulate us ( the none-jewish people of the world) to hate & fight each other to the benefit of the (mentioned before) hook-nosed judaic scum that runs this world by interest-banking, deception & genocide.
welcome to the real nwo.
good riddance to bad garbage.
death and destruction to islam

hopefully the 7 wounded genocidal psychopaths will be in no shape to continue their slaughter of tens of thousands of palestinians whose land they’ve stolen.
please hamas.. keep plugging their a-holes with rpg’s
nothing can stop the will to freedom and the semitic people of palestine have shown the entire world that the “power” of the anglozionazi empire of filth is a paper tiger. as the civil war in $lumville ussa primes, the days of the zionazi regime in occupied palestine are numbered.
only “7”???… southfront clearly loves i$rael
