The mass produced 120mm mortars and more accurate 107 mm rockets were fired by Iranian funded Islamic Jihad
Israel is pointing fingers at Iran as the culprit behind the most serious escalation on it’s southern front in four years. Less than a month after Iran’s Revolutionary Guard Corps fired 32 rockets toward Israel’s northern Golan Heights, the Iranian-funded Islamic Jihad, along with Hamas, fired some 180 Iranian-made, 120-millimeter mortar shells from the Gaza strip. The barrage included the more precise 107-millimeter rocket, which has a range of about ten kilometers into the communities in southern Israel.
