Iron Dome anti-rocket batteries deployed across S. Israel

The IDF unusually announced Friday night that Iron Dome rocket interceptors had been deployed to defend the towns of southern Israel within range of the Gaza Strip. This step was not explained by any new information incoming from the Gaza Strip about fresh plans to attack Israel, after two rockets fired on June 3 exploded at the Sedot Yam local council. Saturday June 6 marks the anniversaries of two Arab-Israel wars which began on that day – the Six-Day War in 1967 and the Second Lebanon War in 2006.
