Dramatic escalation as Islamic Jihad in Gaza targets Israel’s second largest city – more than 700 rockets fired at Israel in past 24 hours
JERUSALEM – At 9:00pm local time Tuesday night, Tel Aviv – Israel’s second largest city – came under a withering attack of rockets from Gaza Strip.
Other towns, villages, cities and suburbs around Tel Aviv – including Herzliya, Netanya, Rishon Litzion, among others -- are also under rocket attack.
After the attack on Jerusalem last night, this is a dramatic escalation.
Several million Israelis are now living in bomb shelters and basements, huddling with their children, for safety.
