A barrage of rockets fired from Gaza into Israel are seen in the sky of the southern Gaza Strip city of Rafah

Beirut, August 5 (RHC)-- Palestinian resistance fighters have fired a barrage of rockets from the Gaza Strip towards targets in the occupied territories.  The Saraya al-Quds Brigades, the armed wing of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad resistance movement, released footage on Sunday, showing its fighters targeting settlements in the occupied city of Asqalan.

Meanwhile, Israeli media reported that several rockets impacted Gan Yavne near the occupied city of Ashdod.  The rockets were launched simultaneously from multiple locations in Gaza, according to local sources.

The resistance groups based in Gaza have long launched rocket attacks on the occupied lands in response to Israel's blockade on the Palestinian territory, as well as its crimes against the Palestinian people.
