PIJ rocket launches inside the Gaza Strip

Since Hamas’ initial attack on Israel, Hamas has continuously used civilians in the Gaza as human shields, regularly launched barrages of rockets and used civilian compounds for military purposes.

These rocket launches are carried out from areas adjacent to civilian buildings and compounds such as hospitals, UN schools, mosques, restaurants, diplomatic buildings, and hotels.

The Hamas and Islamic Jihad terrorist organizations fire rockets indistinctly at Israeli civilians, these rockets .have also been causing harm to civilians in the Gaza

Yesterday (Tuesday), there was an increase seen in the number of rockets launched at Israel that fell short and landed in the Gaza Strip. Hamas is continuing to use the residents of the Gaza as human shields, and does not hesitate to risk the lives of Gazan civilians to shield their attacks.

It can be seen that the damage from the failed rocket launch of the Islamic Jihad is in the parking lot nearby and is not similar to a crater resulting from a strike.

In addition, the buildings around the hospital were not damaged. This is further proof that the IDF did not strike this area.
