Tel Aviv: Rockets launched from northern Gaza landed in southern Israel on Sunday, just a day before the first anniversary of Hamas’s attack on October 7, according to the Israeli military.
In an official statement, the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) confirmed, “Several projectiles were identified crossing from the northern Gaza Strip into Israeli territory. One projectile was intercepted, and the rest fell in open areas.”
The Israeli military remains on high alert for potential attacks as the country nears the anniversary of the devastating assault by Palestinian militants.
