As ceasefire takes hold, Islamic Jihad vows new rounds of violence [IsraelTimes] Terror group spokesperson blames Israel for violence as shaky truce appears to hold and south returns to routine, claims its rocket barrages were coordinated with Hamas. A spokesman for the Palestinian Islamic Jihad vowed to continue fighting against Israel, shortly after a ceasefire went into effect Tuesday ending two days of clashes between Israel and the Gaza-based terror group. “This isn’t the final round with the occupation,” said Abu Hamza, spokesman for the al-Quds Brigades, the terror group’s armed wing. “The fire of the struggle over the land of Palestine will burn despite all the conspiracies,” Abu Hamza said in a statement. Over the course of Sunday and Monday, terrorists in the Strip fired over 90 rockets and mortar shells at southern Israel. Some 90 percent of the projectiles heading toward populated areas were intercepted by the Iron Dome anti-missile system, according to the Israel Defense Forces, though one managed to slam into a playground in Sderot, and falling shrapnel caused damage elsewhere. There were no serious injuries on the Israeli side. The IDF retaliated to the attacks with several rounds of airstrikes against the Islamic Jihad in Gaza, as well as a rare publicly acknowledged attack against the group’s facilities near the Syrian capital Damascus late Sunday night, in which two members of the terrorist organization were killed. In his Tuesday statement, Abu Hamza said the group had acted with Hamas’s approval and cooperation. |
