IDF: Rafah Operation Far from Over
(Jerusalem Post)Margot Dudkevitch - The IDF Friday said its operation in the Rafah area in the Gaza Strip was far from over, saying it was cutting down its presence in some areas and expanding it in others. IDF sources said there are no plans to halt Operation Rainbow, but where troops have completed their search, they will move on to operate in other areas. Minister Gideon Ezra said some of those apprehended in Rafah over the past four days possess information regarding the location of weapon smuggling tunnels. After they are interrogated, the army would act on the information to discover and demolish the tunnels. Palestinians in Gaza fired eight Kassam rockets into the western Negev Thursday. There were no reports of casualties or damage.
