Gaza arson balloons spark 33 fires in south while Qatar envoy still in Strip
[IsraelTimes] Two incendiaries land inside communities, one near a playground where children were playing.

Paleostinians in Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamaswith about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response...

...an emirate on the east coast of the Arabian Peninsula. It sits on some really productive gas and oil deposits, which produces the highest per capita income in the world. They piss it all away on religion, financing the Moslem Brotherhood and several al-Qaeda affiliates. Home of nutbag holy manYusuf al-Qaradawi...
’s envoy to the Hamas, a regional Iranian catspaw,-run coastal enclave was still in the Strip seeking to deescalate ongoing tensions between the terror group and Israel.

Two of the arson balloons landed within the borders of a community in the Eshkol Regional Council, with one falling near a playground where children were playing and another coming down near a home belonging to elderly residents, a front man for the municipality said.

However,
the way to a man's heart remains through his stomach...
most of the brush fires caused were "small and not dangerous," the Israel Fire and Rescue Services said in a statement.

Israeli warplanes and tanks attacked Hamas targets in southern Gaza earlier Wednesday after balloon launchers caused 29 fires near border towns on Tuesday.

The latest fires came as Qatari envoy Mohammed al-Emadi was still in the Gaza Strip, where he arrived late Tuesday night bringing $30 million in cash, seeking to ease the Israel-Hamas tensions that have led to daily arson balloon and rocket attacks on Israel and IDF reprisal strikes.

The money is earmarked to help the territory of two million people, half of whom live under the poverty line, sources close to the envoy told AFP.

Al-Emadi met with Hamas officials later Tuesday night.

His arrival came a day after the London-based Arabic-language daily Asharq al-Awsat reported that the head of the IDF Southern Command, Maj. Gen. Herzi Halevi, visited Qatar this week in a bid to secure a ceasefire agreement with Hamas.

#1 another coming down near a home belonging to elderly residents

....Sobering to think there are people in that home who have never known a time in their lives when they were not marked for extermination.

#2 33 randomly launched fire bombs.
Sounds like 33 randomly fired rockets is a reasonable return.

#3 Each should be answered by a full battery of 155's firing WP at random spots picked by Mossad inside the Gaza strip.
