A LAW anti-tank rocket stolen from the Israel Defense Forces was fired at a residential compound in Jaljulia on Wednesday evening, according to a post by commentator Haim Cohen. Cohen stated the incident had a criminal background. No casualties were reported. The rocket, which was reportedly stolen from IDF stocks, was fired in the Arab Israeli town of Jaljulia, located in central Israel. The motive was described as criminal rather than nationalistically motivated. As The Zioneer earlier reported, ynet had reported a LAW rocket being fired at an unspecified compound earlier that evening without identifying the location or motive. The new disclosure adds location and context for the incident. In a separate incident earlier this month, police uncovered a cache containing a LAW rocket and grenades stolen from the IDF in Ramla, leading to an arrest, as The Zioneer reported.
