The IAF has stepped up its response and it is reported by News13 that one home of a senior Hamas commander was hit, but he was not there, as senior Hamas commanders are in bunkers hiding. The Security Cabinet is convening at this time and it is reported the Prime Minister/Defense Minister Binyamin Netanyahu has given IDF Chief of Staff Lt.-General Aviv Kochavi the green light for the military to continue pounding terrorist targets. It does appear that the IDF is working to execute targeted strikes against senior Hamas commanders. Sirens continue wailing at this time.

Israel reports that despite reports to the contrary, no negotiations towards a ceasefire are underway. Israel reports it continues to target terrorist objectives in Gaza.

Rocket attack briefs

Rail service has been halted to and from Be’er Sheva as a result of a rocket strike to the tracks.

  1. Maybe the Chillul Shabbos Eurovision will be cancelled. The country will certainly be safer as a result.

  2. I hope Arik Sharon still torts in Gehinom. This this what “disengagement” from Gaza brought on Yiden of Eretz Isroel.

  3. Flatbush tzadik . In the midber people like had sympathy on people that died because they sinned with the eigel etc .

    Themir is correct
    It’s time to stop being so worried about hurting the delicate feelings of sonay hashem and worrying a bit more about ”hurting ” kaviyachol.
    Yes public purposeful חילול שבת creates a clear public danger. It can and must be called out. That goes for all the public works projects as well.

    And you know something else? When those עבריינים are stuffing their חילול שבת in my face they don’t seem to care a bit about my feelings. So let them know that I think they are endangering us all.
    Stop sticking up for evil
