Ashkelon to Get Rocket Warning System
(Ha'aretz) Yuval Azoulay - The industrial zone south of Ashkelon will be connected to the Red Dawn rocket launch warning system within two weeks, the Israel Defense Forces has promised, after two Kassam rockets landed in the zone during the past week. The IDF decided to make the system operational only in the industrial zone since it does not believe that Palestinian terrorist organizations are capable of launching rockets into the city itself as of yet. The city council said it wanted to prevent the sirens from sending residents into panic throughout Ashkelon when most parts of the city are out of firing range.
