Bombs fired into Israel’s south and north

Over 150 bombs have been fired into southern Israel from Gaza since this weekend. Many of these missiles are fired in the mornings to coincide with children’s travel to school. Four soldiers in a jeep were wounded on Saturday ranging from seriously wounded to light to moderate condition. Four Israeli civilians, one from Sderot, were injured by shrapnel Sunday morning. Israel has fired back at terrorist launching sites, including a weapons making facility and an arms dump. The Iron Dome defense system downed some of the incoming missiles. When the Code Red siren goes off, warning of incoming rockets, residents have only 15 seconds to run for cover.

On Israel’s northern border, IDF tanks struck a Syrian artillery launcher after a Syrian mortar shell landed near an IDF post in the eastern Golan Heights. Israel warned against further shooting from either location, cautioning against an escalation of hostilities.
