Some 30 rockets fired at Israel, reports say
[IsraelTimes] Israeli reports indicate some 30 rockets were fired at Israel in recent salvos, by far the largest barrage to target Israel in at least several days.

There is no comment from the military on the rocket launches, which largely punctured the idea that the military’s offensive had put a major constraint on Gazook terrorists’ ability to fire into Israel.
That’s certainly one perspective. Another is that the bad guys mostly can’t pull this kind of thing off anymore, which suggests that the IDF’s offensive has mostly limited the ability of the jihadis to do so.
Despite the size of the volley, no injuries or significant damage is reported, though there are indications of fragments and shrapnel falling in populated areas.

Hamas, Hezbollah claim credit for attacks in south, north

[IsraelTimes] Hamas
...always the voice of sweet reason...
’s al-Qassam Brigades armed wing takes credit for the hail of rockets fired at Israel, saying it targeted Tel Aviv.

In the north, Lebanese terror group Hezbollah takes responsibility for what it calls three direct hits in northern Israel, after anti-tank missiles were fired at civilians, injuring two.

I guess, to the author the difference between 7000 and 30 is nor significant. Wonder if his employers will adopt that attitude toward his next paycheck.
