Rockets fired from the Gaza Strip reached the densely populated central Israel area on Tuesday evening when rockets fired at Tel Aviv and Gedera were intercepted by the Iron Dome missile defense system, as the IDF's Operation Protective Edge was underway. Over 70 rockets fell across an increasing number of communities across Israel during the day. Code Red rocket alerts sounded in Tel Aviv, Givatayim, Gedera, Be'er Sheva, Ashkelon, Ashdod, Ofakim, Merhavim, Ramat HaNegev and Eshkol on Tuesday. The Iron Dome missile defense system was in operation in various locations, intercepting at least two rockets over Be'er Sheva, and more fired at the coastal cities of Ashdod and Ashkelon. It is also believed that at least one rocket was intercepted over Netivot http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-4539418,00.html |
