While leading Hamas terrorists convene in Cairo to decide if they will move ahead with a ceasefire deal with Israel, terrorists in Gaza on Friday evening fired a Katyusha rocket into Gan Yavne. While the media reports a �deal is imminent,� the rocket attacks into southern Israel have once again become an almost daily occurrence.
Residents of Gan Yavne on Friday night reported hearing �explosions that mimicked a rocket attack,� but sirens in the city did not sound. On Shabbos morning, bomb-demolition technicians located the remnants of the rocket in open fields, with IDF Homefront Command officials confirming the sirens did not sound �due to technical malfunction�.
Army officials added that even during the war, the sirens did not sound from time-to-time, assuring all southern residents that the early warning system is operational.
