Hamas ups rocket fire to force “truce”

Rocket attacks on Israel have increased in the last couple of days. What do you want to bet they’ve done so because Hamas is trying to force Israel into agreeing to that bogus truce?

A Qassam rocket fired from northern Gaza landed at the Sderot cemetery Sunday afternoon. Another rocket landed near a house in town, causing substantial damage to the building. Gas tanks nearby caught fire as a result of the rocket’s explosion.

Fortunately, the house’s residents were not there at the time of the attack.

A rocket fired from northern Gaza earlier Sunday landed near the local garage in a kibbutz south of Ashkelon. No injuries or damage were reported in the attack.

On Saturday, a Qassam rocket landed in an open field in the Sdot Negev Regional Council, causing no injuries or damage.

Four rockets were fired at Ashkelon on Friday morning, one of then landing in the city’s southern cemetery. Dozens of graves were damaged.

There was also a katyusha rocket attack on Ashkelon.

Palestinian terrorists fired a rocket towards Ashkelon Sunday morning, Israel Radio reported.

The rocket, likely a Grad type Katyusha, exploded before landing but caused serious damage to a garage in the city’s industrial zone. No one was hurt in the attack.

It astonishes me that Israel is under near-daily rocket attacks, and the world does nothing. Yet when the IDF goes into Gaza—as it will, this summer—to stop the rocket attacks, the world will rise up as one and condemn the country that is suffering from the rocket attacks.

Yes, it’s a day that ends with a “y,” so this means it’s Israeli Double Standard Time.

There were also more mortar attacks.
