It was also alleged in Arab reports that the terrorist organization of the Islamic Jihad is behind the launches.
The organization's secretary general recently threatened that if security detainee Hisham Abu Hash was killed due to his hunger strike, Islamic Jihad would treat it as an assassination and act accordingly.
In recent weeks, Hamas has made threats against Israel in light of what it described as delays in implementing the facilitation of the Gaza Strip.
This week, the terrorist organizations conducted a joint military maneuver.
On Friday, senior Hamas and Islamic Jihad officials were interviewed by the Palestinian newspaper Al-Ayyam and claimed that Israeli measures were pushing for more security incidents, similar to the border shooting incident in which a civilian was injured.
