14-Nov-12 [UPDATED]: Volley of four rockets crashes into southern Israel

Four rockets fired in a single round crashed into southern Israel's Eshkol region around 2:00 pm this afternoon, Wednesday. We have no reports yet of injuries or damage. They may come later.

There were immediate indications - call them rumours - that the source of the rocket fire today was Egyptian Sinai. That seems unlikely but we will report back on that too.

Times of Israel is now reporting that "three or four" mortar rounds were indeed fired from the Sinai Peninsula and exploded "near an Israeli village situated in the northern section of Israel’s shared border with Egypt".

Stay tuned.

Like many sites that advocate for a moderate, Israel-friendly viewpoint, we unfortunately receive abusive, offensive and racist messages on a routine basis. We want it to be clear that we reserve the right to reject them in our absolute discretion. Racist and Israel-hating sites abound on the web. So not being allowed to play in our sandbox can hardly be called a hardship. Anonymous postings or messages where email address of the poster is hidden from us will generally not be accepted.
