The Palestinian resistance started on Tuesday morning to launch rocket counterattacks on zionist targets and settlements in response to the assassination of Islamic Jihad military commander Bahaa Abul-Ata and his wife in a dawn airstrike on their house in the Gaza Strip.

Al-Quds Brigades, the armed wing of Islamic Jihad, said it fired a volley of rockets at Tel Aviv city, triggering sirens across its neighborhoods and suburbs.

Other resistance factions also launched retaliatory attacks on different zionist targets.

According to local sources, rocket sirens trilled repeatedly starting at 6 o’clock in the morning in towns near the Gaza border. An hour later, alarms were triggered in the Tel Aviv suburbs of Rishon Lezion and Holon, as well as in the cities of Gedera and Ashdod.

At approximately 8 a.m. rocket sirens sounded in Tel Aviv itself and in the nearby suburbs of Holon and Bat Yam.

Until now, 10 Israelis were injured by Palestinian rockets.
