JERUSALEM (AA) – The Israeli army claimed Tuesday to have intercepted a rocket fired from the southern Gaza Strip amid its brutal war on the enclave.
A military statement said in-coming rocket sirens were activated in several settlements adjacent to Gaza border.
The army said the results of the interception was under review, with no injuries reported.
There was no Palestinian comment on the Israeli claim.
On Monday, the Israeli army claimed that its air defenses intercepted two rockets fired from northern Gaza towards adjacent settlements.
The Israeli army has continued a genocidal war on Gaza that has killed over 45,500 victims, mostly women and children, since a Hamas attack on Oct. 7, 2023 despite a UN Security Council resolution calling for an immediate cease-fire.
In November, the International Criminal Court issued arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant for war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza.
Israel also faces a genocide case at the International Court of Justice for its war on the enclave.
