Missile Attacks from Gaza to southern Israel including Ashdod, Ashkelon,Eilat regions -  some of the schools were closed because of the rocket fire.

IAF and IDF attacked terrorists positions in Gaza and in a joint operation were able to eliminate terrorist Achmed Machmud J'ama Halil Zaanin born 1992, resident of Bet Hanun active in Terrorist organization, Hazit Amamit and involved in the past years in many terror attacks including rocket fire into Israel, many attempts to set off explosive devices, sharpshooting and shooting against IDF tanks and troops in the Israeli region near Gaza.

This report is only from the past few days, and the amount of terror attacks continue encouraged by the heads of the PA even while the supposed talks for a settlement in this region go on.

It is not difficult to imagine what the situation would be if Israel would not have a civilian and military presence in these vital areas- the destruction of Gush Katif and the continued attacks from Gaza should be fair warning.
