The media won't report this but I will. There's a cool app called "Red Alert: Israel" that was developed (by an Israeli teenager, believe it or not) to warn citizens when terrorists launch rockets, mortars, or missiles into Israel. It detects the launch, sends an alert, and citizens have approximately 30-60 seconds to take cover from the warning, depending which area is being attacked.
I've had the app for awhile and its been especially active today, as one would expect after the Jerusalem recognition. So here's the number of rocket attacks lately that the media won't report:
12/8/17--16 rocket attacks so far today (as of 3:00 Eastern time)
12/7/17--4
12/5/17--10
12/4/17--1
11/30/17--5
Point being that no more than a few days go by without a terrorist firing rockets into Israel. Its been that way for awhile but we never hear about it. The only decent month lately was September when there were hardly any alerts, maybe 1 or 2 all that month.
Its difficult to tell how many rockets are intercepted or just allowed to land in a deserted area, but there are Youtube videos of these rocket attacks being intercepted by the Iron Dome system.
The app is free and very interesting if you want to check it out. Each alert has its own message board where folks can post words of support (or the occasional terrorist sympathizer who posts stupid ****). There is also a chat feature within the app.
