Three Qassams hit west Negev, further unraveling Gaza truce
Palestinian militants fired three Qassam rockets into the western Negev on Wednesday, further unraveling an Israel-Hamas truce in the Gaza Strip.

The rockets struck open areas near a Kibbutz in the Sha'ar Hanegev Regional Council.

Gaza militants earlier in the day fired a volley of mortar shells into Israel, one of which damaged a power cable transferring electricity to the energy-strapped Gaza Strip, according to Army Radio.

The militants launched a total of eight shells at the Eshkol regional council in the attack. Neither the Qassam rockets nor the mortar shells caused any casualties.

1. And yet Israel, stupidly, opens the gates with supplies and aid
despite the constant breaking of the truce by Hamas.

There is no reason for Hamas to abide by the truce because they get aid anyway.

2. Who the fuck cares?
This shit doesn't even make the US news. Let me know when the Gaza humanitarian disaster makes the MSM, and then I make give a fuck about Qassam rockets.
