IDF Bracing for Increased Rocket Fire from Sinai
(Jerusalem Post) - Yaakov Katz and Yaakov Lappin - The IDF is bracing for an increase in rocket attacks from the Sinai Peninsula and into Israel over the coming days as the Egyptian presidential election comes to a close. A senior defense official said Sunday that Israel had not yet confirmed the identity of the terror cell that launched two rockets into southern Israel on Friday night - one near Uvda and the other near Mitzpe Ramon. The rockets were both identified as 122 mm Katyushas which have a range of 50 km with a 30 kilogram explosive warhead.
