Iranian mortars with 8 kilometer range fired from Gaza
Dr. Aaron Lerner Date: 2 April, 2008

Israel Television Channel Two Correspondent Ronnie Daniel reported last
night that the mortars fired from Gaza on Tuesday were 120mm Iranian
mortars.

They have a range of 8 kilometers and can do considerably more damage than
Qassam rockets.

Daniel said that many of the protective reinforcements that have been placed
in order to shield Israelis from Qassams do not provide protection from
these mortars. In addition, the Iranian made mortars travel at a speed that
makes the warning system that gives Israelis a few seconds to duck for cover
from the slower Qassams meaningless.
