Israel-Gaza conflict continues to intensify

After more than a week of fighting, appeals by major powers for calm and a growing number of casualties, the conflict between Israel and Hamas continued to intensify Tuesday amid reports of rockets also being launched from Lebanon.

Israel said the half a dozen from southern Lebanon rockets never reached Israeli territory and it is unclear what group was behind the launches

Monday’s failed attack marks the third time rockets have been fired from Israel’s north as fighting rages on between Israel and Gaza in the south. On Thursday, three rockets were fired towards Israel but landed in the Mediterranean Sea, causing no damage or casualties. Syria also fired three missiles at Israel on Friday hours after the Hezbollah terror group said Israeli troops had killed one of its fighters caught infiltrating Israel’s northern border. One rocket fell inside Syria and the other two landed in open areas in tHe Golan Heights.
