Palestinian Islamic Jihad movement said on Wednesday that there are Israeli intentions to escalate aggression against the Gaza Strip. “The threats against the Islamic Jihad, which are being fueled by the Zionist media, are an attempt to justify this aggression,” Xinhua quoted the movement as saying.
Israeli media outlets reported on Wednesday that mortar shells fired at Israel from Gaza on Friday appear to be the same Iran-made projectiles used in a November 30 barrage fired by the Islamic Jihad group. According to Israeli army assessments, the recent attacks show that Hamas rulers of Gaza have lost ability to prevent other militants groups from carrying out attacks from the coastal enclave, Israeli media said.
