Islamic Jihad Rocket Depot Targeted in Jabalya

More than 160 rockets were fired from the Gaza Strip, and struck major population centers in southern Israel, in the last 71 hours. More than 1,000,000 Israelis are under the threat of rocket fire… In response to these terror attacks, a rocket depot used by the Islamic Jihad's rocket launching infrastructure in Jabalya was targeted. As can be seen, the initial attack on the ammunition caused secondary explosions.
