Israel announced the launch of two missiles from the gas sector on Tel Aviv

The Israeli military reported the launch of two gas missiles in the direction of Tel Aviv. In Tel Aviv, a warning system for missile shelling worked. Residents talked about the sounds of explosions.

According to the Israeli Defense Army, the air defense systems were not involved in the interception of missiles. There are no victims and destruction. Israeli media report that the mayor of Tel Aviv instructed to open all city bomb shelters.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu urgentlyheaded to the base of the General Staff to meet with the army command.

Some time after shelling in the press, there were reports that the Palestinian Islamic Jihad group took responsibility for the shelling. However, representatives of the jihadists refuted this message. The radical movement Hamas also rejects his involvement in the shelling. The group evacuated its headquarters in gas due to a possible response from the Israelis.

This is the first attack on Tel Aviv since the summer of 2014. Then Israel conducted a military operation "Infectant Rock" in the gas sector in order to destroy Hamas military facilities.

In November last year, Israel and Hamas agreed to stop the exchange of blows. However, the Israeli defense army regularly announced the attack on the objects of the group in response to missile strikes from the Gaza sector.
