New rocket barrage from Gaza targets central Israel in months

Hamas launched rockets toward Tel Aviv in central Israel for the first time in months, according to the BBC.

"Numerous rockets were fired from the Gaza Strip towards central Israel, the first rocket barrage directed at the area in months," reports The Jerusalem Post.

The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) reported that a moment ago, a barrage of rockets was fired from Rafah towards central Israel.

They also added that humanitarian aid arrived in Gaza this morning through the Kerem Shalom crossing, and now rockets are being launched towards central Israel.

The rockets were launched from Rafah in the southern Gaza Strip. A fragment of one of the rockets fell in the city of Herzliya, near Tel Aviv.

An hour earlier, the IDF reported that sirens were heard in Tel Aviv and other cities in central Israel.
