Hamas Fires Test Missiles From Gaza To Mediterranean Sea

The military wing of Hamas conducted four test launches of missiles that it has produced itself. Three of them were tested on Wednesday night, and the fourth early Thursday morning. All the missiles were fired from within the Gaza Strip to the Mediterranean Sea, where they fell.
