IDF SPOKESPERSON ANNOUNCEMENT

A large number of Qassam rockets and mortar shells were launched from all
along the Gaza Strip into Israel since dawn today.

According to security assessments, the Hamas terrorist organization
attempted to execute yet another terrorist attack by means of a large-scale
operation. IDF forces operated in an immediate and determined manner, thus
thwarting the planned terrorist attack.

The IDF will continue to operate in the area, monitor the developments and
provide a security response to every threat.

Hamas has continued to plan terrorist attacks against the citizens of
Israel, cynically using the cease fire.
