Terror Groups Tried to Strike Israeli Oil Rig during 2014 Gaza War
(Ha'aretz) Avi Bar-Eli - Terror groups attempted to sabotage an Israeli offshore platform in the summer of 2014, National Security Adviser Yossi Cohen told a Knesset hearing on Sunday. "During Operation Protective Edge there were attempts to hit a drilling platform, and to our relief the weapon used was not precise enough to hit the rig," he said. He warned that "the weapons that are in the hands of the terror organizations that surround us today are already far more sophisticated and precise."
