CAIRO: Hamas’ armed wing claimed on Thursday an attack with a barrage of rockets against Tel Aviv, in central Israel.

The group said the attack was in response to “the Zionist massacres against civilians”.

Three projectiles were identified crossing from southern Gaza into Israel, the Israeli military said.
