2007-06-06
Hamas possesses Grad missiles with a range of 20 kilometers that have yet to be fired at Israel, OC Military Intelligence Maj.-Gen. Amos Yadlin said during Tuesday's Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee meeting. Israel Radio quoted Yadlin as saying that the group also had Kassam rockets capable of reaching distances of up to 13 kilometers. Yadlin also warned that shoulder-fired missiles, with a range of 40 kilometers, could soon be smuggled into the Gaza Strip.

#1  The Grad (a Katyusha-type missile) can go 20 km - it will hit something somewhere in a 20 km radius, but nobody knows what.
A 40 km shoulder-fired missile? Must be some mighty big shoulders.
