Israel Alerts UN of Increasing Rocket Fire
(Ynet News) Yitzhak Benhorin - Israel's Ambassador to the UN Ron Prosor sent an urgent letter to UN Secretary-General Ben Ki-moon and the Security Council alerting them about the increase in rocket fire from Gaza at Israel in the past month. "These attacks are deliberately targeted at Israeli civilians - and continue to represent a serious danger to the population," he wrote. "Israel holds Hamas fully responsible for all attacks emanating from the area that it controls. In response to these attacks, Israel has exercised and will continue to exercise its right to self-defense." Prosor stressed that "the attacks constitute a clear violation of international law."
