Gaza militants fire mortar salvo into Israel

[oberliner]

JERUSALEM — Palestinian militants in Gaza fired seven mortar shells into southern Israel on Monday that fell on open ground and caused no casualties, the army said.

The Popular Resistance Committee, an Islamist coalition of militants based in the Gaza Strip, said its fighters fired 10 mortars at the Jewish state.

"The Brigades launched 10 mortars at the Sofa military installation, east of Rafah," in southern Gaza, the group said in a statement.

"We reiterate that we will not stand by idly in response to the Zionist policy of assassinations, the latest of which was the assassination of five mujahedeen (Islamic fighters) by the Zionist enemy," it added.

1. According to the link...

the five 'Islamic Fighters'were in the process of firing rocket/s at Israel. Caught in the act they were.

Gotta give the Gazans credit for trying the same experiment over and over again and hoping for a different result.

You wonder about the intelligence factor of those who continue to fire motars and rockets at Israel with few, if any, results.

Israel needs an aerostat tethered about a mile in the air carrying full radar of the border with Gaza. They could then pinpoint the firing points and take them out thereby avoiding collateral damage.
