As sirens wailed across the Holy City of al-Quds, three loud explosions were heard and a series of flashes light the sky to the southwest.

A tweet from the Israeli occupation military said “Confirmed: A rocket fired from Gaza hit Jerusalem, Israel’s capital city.”

“Until now, one hit has been identified in an open area near Ramat Raziel,” police spokeswoman Luba Samri said.

It was the first time since a major 2012 conflict that Gaza-based militants had fired rockets at the Holy City, and came as the Zionist entity pressed an aerial offensive against the besieged coastal Strip.

More than 130 rockets were fired at the occupied territories on Tuesday, the occupation army said, after the military began the offensive it called Operation “Protective edge”.
