Two rockets landed in Eilat on Wednesday morning, according to a military source in the Israeli Defence Force. The rockets were fired from Sinai, the source claimed. Ahmed Ali, a military spokesperson for the Egyptian Ministry of Defence, denied that any evidence had been found to prove that the rockets had been fired from Sinai, but said that the ministry was cooperating with the Israeli Defence Ministry to investigate the matter. The rockets fell in open areas and did not result in any injuries or destruction of property, according to Paul Hirschon of the Knesset Foreign Affairs media office. The Mojahideen Shura Council from the Environs of Jerusalem released a statement claiming responsibility for the attack “as a response to the ongoing oppression of the Palestinian prisoners in Jewish prisons”. The Egyptian Ministry of Defence would not comment, as investigations into the situation are ongoing.
