Palestinan Groups Threaten Israel with Long-Range Missiles that May Have Been Smuggled from Egypt
(Jerusalem Post) Khaled Abu Toameh - Three armed Palestinian groups in the Gaza Strip on Monday threatened to continue their attacks on Israel and said they have long-range missiles capable of reaching more Israeli towns and cities. The Aksa Martyrs Brigades, the armed wing of Fatah, claimed it possessed Grad missiles with a range of 25 km. The 122-mm. Grad missile, officially known as BM-21, was first used by the Soviet Red Army in 1963. The Popular Resistance Committees claimed its members had developed a homemade rocket with a range of 15 km.
