In a recent escalation of tensions, Hamas launched a ‘big missile attack’ towards Tel Aviv in central Israel, marking the first time in months that rocket sirens were heard in the city. The incident unfolded when Hamas’ armed wing, the al-Qassam Brigades, claimed responsibility for firing a barrage of rockets from the Gaza Strip into Tel Aviv. The Israeli military promptly responded by sounding sirens across the central city, alerting citizens of the incoming rockets.

According to reports, at least eight rockets were launched by Hamas from the Rafah area in southern Gaza, with several being intercepted by the Israeli military. The launch was in retaliation for what Hamas referred to as ‘Zionist massacres against civilians,’ further intensifying the ongoing conflict between the two sides. Despite the intensity of the missile attack, Israeli emergency medical services stated that there were no immediate reports of casualties.

The area has been a focal point of conflict, with ongoing clashes resulting in casualties and damage. In response to the situation, the international community has voiced concerns over the escalating humanitarian crisis affecting civilians caught in the crossfire of the conflict.
