New information about the missile launch in the Binyamin Region shows that it was a homemade Qassam missile with a small warhead. Security officials estimate that the rocket, which was launched from the village of Ni’ma, had a range of approximately 10 kilometers.
i24NEWS reported that this is the first occurrence where a rocket in Judea and Samaria has reached such a level of operational development, raising concerns of an escalation in the use of weaponry by hostile elements in the area.
The launch failed, and the Palestinian Authority security forces managed to apprehend the terrorists who attempted to launch the missile. Security sources note that this is a precedent-setting incident and emphasize its seriousness.
Without question, this situation raises considerable concern. As Israel remains engaged in warfare on various fronts, the IDF is now tasked with further demands on its already overworked soldiers to develop new strategies to eradicate terrorism.
