Gaza City, May 26 (RHC)-- The Al Qassam Brigades, the armed wing of Hamas, reported this Sunday that they had fired, for the first time in months, rockets at targets in the central Israeli city of Tel Aviv.

Tel Aviv and central Israel have suffered a massive rocket attack reportedly coming from the southern Gaza Strip.

The Israeli military said on Sunday that eight rockets were launched from the Rafah area in southern Gaza, where its forces have continued a ground assault despite an order from the International Court of Justice (ICJ) to halt operations there.

According to local media reports, sirens sounded in about 30 areas across central Israel including Tel Aviv, and there have been reports of several light injuries due to the attack.

Hamas’s military wing the Qassam Brigades claimed responsibility for the attack, saying in a statement on its Telegram channel on Sunday that the rockets were launched in response to “Zionist massacres against civilians.”

The Iron Dome anti-aircraft system has intercepted multiple rockets over northern Tel Aviv, while local residents have witnessed at least 15 explosions.
