Hamas spokesperson Abu Obeida warned Tuesday morning that the rocket range would expand to include the cities of Beersheba and Ashkelon if Israel would continue striking.“The resistance factions’ joint command center is holding a serious conversation about expanding its range of fire. Ashkelon is just the beginning. Approximately one million Zionists will be within the range of our missiles if the Zionist enemy’s decision is to continue its aggression,” he said.Islamic Jihad spokesman Daoud Shehab echoed Hamas’s message, saying that the groups wanted "the occupation and its supporters know that the lives of our sons come with a price."According to reports senior Egyptian intelligence officials are trying to broker a ceasefire to the latest escalation which has put a damper on hopes that Israel and Hamas were close to agreeing to a long-term ceasefire mediated by Egypt and the United Nations.#Hamas releases video of Kornet anti-tank missile hitting bus critically injuring an #IDF soldier earlier today.
