Perfect timing. Red Alert. #Gaza #Israel

As #AbrahamAccords are being conducted Red Alerts are sounding in Ashkelon, and Ashdod. #Gaza #Israel

Explosions reported over Ashdod.

Wonder how many reporterss phones at the White House went off on loud during the ceremony….

Video of an interception this evening, #Gaza #Israel

Initial photo from a reported impact in Ashdod, #Israel. 2 injuries, 1 in moderate condition.

Video from the scene in Ashdod;

I would assume, shortly, we will hear reports from #Gaza of factions evacuting their positions in Gaza expecting a response.

At least 5 injured in the rocket impact outside a shopping centre, #Ashdod, #Israel

2 lightly wounded due to shrapnel from glass, 4 treated for shock. #Gaza #Israel

Video from the impact scene in Ashdod, #Israel

Social media accounts affilated with #Hamas are posting praising to the members of resistance which launched the rockets from northern #Gaza. #IDF confirm two rockets launched from Gaza, 1 intercepted.

Lots to consider on the missed interception. Will run through these later.

So here’s the things to think about;
Was Iron Dome in the vicinity, we can assume so considering one interception was confirmed. Iron Dome has proven multiple times that 2 rocket interceptions are possible, more than two as well. Factions have been trying circumvent Iron Dome...

for a long time, could they have maybe managed it? if yes, that’s a whole other topic, if no, how/why did this one sneak through and can the factions exploit it again?

The video here included adds to the interest, this video shows a launch of a single rocket from Northern #Gaza, no MRLS used here for the two rockets launched, so it was coordinated across two areas of #Gaza this evening, two different rockets.

Video of the rocket impact this evening in #Ashdod, #Israel.

Another interesting tidbit from this evening. Reported image of the remains from the rocket this evening in Ashdod. That machining around the end of what I assume the shell is extremely clean and precise. I don’t recall seeing remains this cleaning machined before.

Cleanly machined before*

The CNC work is really interesting.

Yes, it’s a small detail, but it shows the advancement in the factions capabilities.

We saw in the documentary on @AJArabic the other night that Al-Qassam have been machining old WW1 ordinance and others, the machinery can be seen here.

62 year old in Assuta Hospital, Ashdod now considered in a serious condition due to injuries sustained this evening in rocket attack.
