Hamas arrests five for firing rocket into Israel

Hamas arrested five people on Sunday suspected of firing a rocket into Israel.

The rocket, which was fired from Gaza on Friday, hit the Eshkol Regional Council in southern Israel, causing no damage or casualties.

Hamas officials released a statement on Sunday denying responsibility for the attack.

“Our people did not shoot the rocket and we are committed to the ceasefire,” the group said, according to Israel Radio.

Rocketeers the Palestine Medal of Freedom (or some other equally appropriate honor).

That would mean you have to pay attention to what they say.

What were they charged with?

Will there be a trial?

Will they serve jail time?

What evidence was used to make the arrest?

Is this reported anywhere in Palestinian media?
