Because this will never end, Hamas are preparing for the next battle. They’ve conducted a major rocket test, shooting at fish in the sea. I contacted PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) for a statement but have yet to hear back.
Arutz 7: Israel and the Gaza-based terrorist organization Hamas may have reached a truce ending Operation Protective Edge late last August, but that didn’t stop Hamas on Monday from firing rockets into the sea as part of tests to improve its ballistic capabilities and prepare for its next war against Israel.
Channel 2 reports that a full ten rockets were fired from the ruins of the Jewish community of Gush Katif into the Mediterranean Sea during the test, and that it was meant to expand the range of Hamas’s rockets which have already reached Hadera outside of Haifa in the north.
Hamas has been busily developing its own domestically produced rockets, including the M-75 long range missile, given that Israel has been earnestly working to prevent outside arms from Hamas backers including Qatar, Turkey and Iran from reaching the terrorist group.
This is far from the first missile test Hamas has conducted since its last rocket war on the Jewish state, with the most recent being held late last month when two rockets were fired into the sea.
Iron Dome was not activated to defend the innocent fish in the sea: we’re waiting for the Associated Press (AP) to report this:

As ever, this won’t be international news until Israel takes some action.
