Palestinians Firing Chinese-Made Rockets
[Jerusalem Post] Yaakov Lappin - A growing number of Chinese-made rockets are being smuggled into Gaza and fired at Israel. Supt. Kobi Preger, deputy head of the Israel Police's national bomb disposal laboratory, identified three types of Chinese-made rockets at a press conference Tuesday: "The 107 millimeter rocket, often called a 'Grad,' and two types of 122mm rockets." One version of the 122mm rocket had a range of 40 km. and had been used by Hamas to target areas such as Yavne, north of Ashdod. "The rockets are going farther and getting more powerful," he warned.
