Israel reports rocket fire from Gaza amid deadly onslaught

JERUSALEM

The Israeli army claimed the interception of a rocket from the southern Gaza Strip on Thursday amid its ongoing onslaught on the enclave.

A military statement said air-raid sirens sounded in the Kerem Shalom area in southern Israel after rocket fire from southern Gaza.

No injuries or damage were reported.

Israel has launched a genocidal war on the Gaza Strip following a Hamas attack last year, killing nearly 44,000 people, most of them women and children, and injuring over 104,000.

International recognition of the genocide in Gaza has grown in the second year of the deadly Israeli war, as organizations and leaders have labeled the events as a deliberate attempt to destroy a population.

Israel faces a genocide case at the International Court of Justice for its deadly war on Gaza.
