ISIS affiliate in Gaza claims failed rocket launch on first day of school year


(Worthy News) – Militants in Gaza attempted to fire a rocket at the Ashkelon region Tuesday morning, triggering Israel’s rocket alarm system.

The attempted attack was claimed by Ansar Bayt al-Maqdis, also known as as the Sinai Province of the Islamic State, a group that opposes Hamas rule of the Gaza Strip and that is leading a bloody insurgency against the Egyptian army and security forces in the Sinai.

The timing of the rocket fire from Gaza coincided with the start of the new school year in Israel with some 2.2 million students entering classrooms. [ Source ]
