After consultation held by mayors in Beer Sheva, Ashdod and Ashkelon with the HFC, it was decided to return the educational system to school tomorrow regularly.

An air raid siren was sounded at 10:06 in the Ashkelon coast council communities, following the identification of a rocket launching from Gaza. But the rocket exploded in Palestinian territory.

10 minutes later the alarm was activated again, but it was soon discovered that it was a false alarm.

He added that during the eight days of the operation, the IDF hit Jabari and dozens of activists and officers of terrorist organizations, "with as minimal damage as we could, to those uninvolved. IDF destroyed all types of rocket launchers hidden in the soil for years. Whatever we identified we attacked."

The Chief of Staff discussed the raising of tens of thousands of reservists for order 8. "The reservist system has allowed us to be strong in other areas and to prepare for the operation in Gaza. We are not allowed to go into action without preparation for its next stage. Everyone who came was recruited quickly after years of training. Reservists found eligible emergency stores and received pre-structured tasks. "

Beware of falls

During the 'Pillar of Defense' military operation over 950 rockets were fired at the southern region, some of which were intercepted by the Iron Dome, some hit and lead to deaths, damage and casualties, and others are not yet identified and are still scattered in the region.

Police appeal to citizens who find duds, or other weapons, not to touch these items, as they may be dangerous, and contain active explosives and harm those who handle them with lack of professionalism.

Israel Police calls for citizens to call the 100 and report any suspicious objects associated with these duds in order that the explosives are professionally taken care of by those in the field.
