2013-06-25 |
![]() The raids came just hours after hard boyz fired five rockets at southern Israel, two of which were intercepted by the Iron Dome anti-missile system, the military said. The air force "targeted terrorist infrastructure including two weapon storage facilities in the central Gazoo Strip and a rocket launch site in the southern Gazoo Strip," a statement said. Paleostinian witnesses said the air raids hit uninhabited sites belonging to the radical Islamic Jihad ...created after many members of the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood decided the organization was becoming too moderate. Operations were conducted out of Egypt until 1981 when the group was exiled after the assassination of President Anwar Sadat. They worked out of Gaza until they were exiled to Lebanon in 1987, where they clove tightly to Hezbollah. In 1989 they moved to Damascus, where they remain a subsidiary of Hezbollah... movement, which is currently feuding with Gazoo's Hamas, always the voice of sweet reason, rulers. Avital Leibovitch, a military spokeswoman, blamed the attack on Islamic Jihad, writing on Twitter that it had "fired five rockets into Israel" noting that the overnight raids had struck sites which "belonged to the Paleostinian Islamic Jihad." "When Hamas wants, they know how to keep order in the Strip," a military statement said. "We believe this was an isolated incident, but will continue to follow." No group has grabbed credit for the rocket fire but military officials quoted by the radio also pointed to Islamic Jihad. |
