11-Jun-15: Thursday night incoming rocket warnings heard in southern Israel

At 10:00 pm tonight, Thursday, Tzeva Adom warnings began to be sounded in a swathe of communities across southern Israel. Ashkelon appears to among them, as does the nearby Hof Ashkelon region. No indication yet of whether and where rockets fell, but when we know we will update this post. The last round of Gaza terrorist rocket fire on Israel (the kind that involves flinging rockets indiscriminately in the general direction of Israel with zero regard for where they land or whom they injure, destroy or kill) was just a few days ago: see "06-Jun-15: Saturday night rocket attack on southern Israel communities"

UPDATE Friday June 12: This source within the IDF Spokesperson Unit (Dover Zahal) said last night that "The rocket that was launched from #Gaza earlier this evening, fell short & landed in the Gaza Strip." Call that another in a long, long, mostly unreported line of "Fell Shorts". And additional evidence that Gaza's Palestinian Arabs are trampled by the Islamist regime that cruelly rules them to an extent that outsiders rarely appreciate because they are not told.

About us

THIS ONGOING WAR is not part of the activity of the Malki Foundation which was founded by us, Frimet and Arnold Roth of Jerusalem, on September 11, 2001. But it is inspired by the same tragic circumstances. The Malki Foundation (also known by its Hebrew name: Keren Malki) is a memorial to the life of our daughter, Malki who was murdered at the age of 15 in a massacre in the centre of Jerusalem carried out by Hamas.

Beyond its function as a remembrance of a beautiful life, the foundation provides tangible, concrete, invaluable support daily to several thousand Israeli families from every part of the religious and socio-economic spectrum: Christian, Moslem, Jewish, Druze and others who care at home for a seriously disabled child.

Good for the soul | The Malki Foundation

If you care to make a positive and constructive contribution to the care of Israeli children with special needs - whether they're Christian, Moslem, Jewish, Druze or unconnected to any particular faith community - you can't do better than direct your donation to the work of the Malki Foundation.

It's the charitable organization we, the bloggers who produce This Ongoing War, established in 2001 in memory of our murdered daughter. Her name is Malki.

Keren Malki (in Hebrew, Keren means 'foundation' or 'fund') is efficient, effective, non-sectarian, non-political and unique in the good work it does. Thousands of families from every part of our richly diverse society here in Israel have benefited in concrete and meaningful ways. Donations to Keren Malki are tax-effective in Israel, Canada, UK and the United States.

There's also plenty of background at www.malkifoundation.org as well as on the Malki Foundation Blog.
