Ten Anti-Aircraft Missiles Fired at Israeli Aircraft in Gaza War
(Ha'aretz) Gili Cohen - At least 10 shoulder-fired anti-aircraft missiles have targeted Israel Air Force planes during the Gaza fighting, but none were hit. "To a certain extent, we were surprised by the advanced level of shoulder-fired anti-aircraft missiles they have [in Gaza]," a senior IAF officer said. In recent days Hamas has been firing mainly mortar shells and short-range rockets at Israel. The Israeli military has identified mortar and rocket launch sites near schools, hospitals and buildings where displaced Gazans have found refuge.
