Israel-Hamas war updates: Over 175 killed as Israeli resumes Gaza attacks

A second barrage of rockets from the Gaza Strip has been sent towards central Israel, this time just a little bit south of Tel Aviv.

These areas were repeatedly targeted by the Qassam Brigades, the armed wing of Hamas, during this war.

On day 56 since the truce expired, we’re continuously seeing rocket fire directed towards places like Tel Aviv and central Israel.

The Israelis said the Iron Dome missile defence system has intercepted those missiles, but in the morning, we saw damage to several vehicles and one home in a southern area after the Iron Dome failed to intercept one of those rockets.

When sirens go off in Israel, the farther people are from the Gaza Strip, the more time they have to enter a shelter.

As advised by Israeli authorities, in Tel Aviv, people have about a minute to a minute and a half to take cover, but closer to the Gaza Strip, people have about 15 to 30 seconds.

The Iron Dome system does have a high success rate, but authorities advise people to shelter because the problem comes after interception when shrapnel falls and can cause injuries and death.
