The long siege and the repeated desecration of the Al-Aqsa Mosque in the Gaza Strip led to strong anti-Israeli backlash. Dozens of rockets were fired at Israeli territories.


According to Palestinian media, dozens of vehicles caught fire after the rocket fell. Sirens started ringing everywhere in Israel. Palestinians occupied the Israeli border check post. A general holiday was announced in all educational institutions in the Palestinian Territory in view of possible backlash.



The head of Hamas' military wing says that the armed group has launched a new military operation against Israel. In an unusual public statement, Mohammad Def said that 5,000 rockets had been fired at Israel early Saturday morning to begin "Operation al-Aqsa Storm." Israel has also reported infiltration from Gaza.
