Hamas fired a barrage of rockets at Tel Aviv on Thursday in the terror group’s first attack since the cease-fire fell apart, Israel’s military said.
The three long-range rockets were launched from the southern Gaza Strip — one of which was intercepted by air defenses, according to the Israel Defense Forces.
The other two fell in an “open area,” the IDF said.

The Al-Qassam Brigades, Hamas’ armed wing, swiftly claimed responsibility for the bombing, saying it was in response to “the Zionist massacres against civilians.”

It wasn’t immediately clear if there were any injuries.
