"This morning, it's a mock missile aimed at Migdal Oz, but tomorrow it will be real missiles toward Tel Aviv."
The Yesha Council umbrella group of Jewish communities in Judea and Samaria on Tuesday accused the Israeli government of failing to deliver “any real response” to attempts to establish a Palestinian terror state after the army found a dummy rocket outside a community in the Gush Etzion region of Judea.
“This morning’s dummy missile is the equivalent of the incendiary kites in the Gaza Envelope [border area] in 2021,” the organization stated, in reference to the Hamas-led terrorist campaign that started in 2018.
Calling the discovery of the projectile a “reminder of the reality of a terror state adjacent to Israel,” the group warned the government in Jerusalem against returning to the security “conception” that existed before Hamas’s Oct. 7, 2023, cross-border massacre from the Strip.
