A new batch of missiles was launched from the Gaza Strip towards Israel, on Wednesday evening, while Israeli planes renewed their air raids on the sites of the Islamic Jihad Movement in the Strip, according to the Sky News Arabia correspondent.
The army spokesman and Israeli media confirmed that sirens were heard in Tel Aviv, Ramat Gan, Givatayim and Beersheba, as well as Sderot, Ashkelon and settlements around the Gaza Strip.
And Sky News Arabia sources indicated that “new and intense missile bursts were launched from the Gaza Strip towards nearby settlements, wounding 3 Israeli settlers.”
Rockets fired from Gaza towards Israeli settlements
Israeli military sources said that hundreds of missiles were launched from Gaza, most of which were intercepted by Israeli defense systems.
And the Ministry of Health in Gaza confirmed, earlier on Wednesday, that the total death toll in the Strip had risen to 21 dead and 64 injured, as a result of the continuous Israeli attacks on Tuesday and Wednesday.
Two Israeli military sources said that Israel used the “David’s Sling” system for medium-range air and missile defense for the first time on Wednesday.
David’s Sling is a system designed to shoot down rockets launched from 100 to 200 kilometers away, and is part of Israel’s missile shield that already includes Iron Dome.
