Great thread. Keeps out all the noise, just presents the facts.

I think we may have spoke to soon.

Here they come.

Reuters is back up too: reuters.livestation.com... Just had an explosion.

GAZA (Reuters) - Two rockets fired from the Gaza Strip targeted Tel Aviv on Thursday in the first attack on Israel's commercial capital in 20 years, raising the stakes in a showdown between Israel and the Palestinians that is moving toward all-out war.

Earlier, a Hamas rocket killed three Israelis north of the Gaza Strip, drawing the first blood from Israel as the Palestinian death toll rose to 16, five of them children.

Israeli warplanes bombed targets in and around Gaza city for a second day, shaking tall buildings. In a sign of possible escalation, the armed forces spokesman said the military had received the green light to call in up to 30,000 reserve troops.

Plumes of smoke and dust furled into a sky laced with the vapor trails of outgoing rockets over the crowded city, where four young children killed on Wednesday were buried. Israeli Defence Minister Ehud Barak said Palestinian militants would pay a price for firing the missiles.

Yeah...from 2 different places I presume. I have no idea of their exact location within Gaza.
