Security establishment assesses launch from central Gaza was training fire by terror groups

A launch detected this morning from the central Gaza Strip toward the sea is believed to have been a training exercise by terrorist organizations, according to initial security establishment assessments.

The Zioneer earlier reported the detection of a launch from central Gaza toward the sea. Subsequent assessments from the security establishment suggest the launch was a training exercise by terrorist groups, not an attack. The assessment is preliminary and no further details on the munition or location have been released.
