The situation in the settlements of the Gaza envelope on Sunday is "insane", Israeli media said in light of the Palestinian resistance's launching of barrages of rockets toward the Israeli occupation.
"Today was insane in terms of what happened in the Gaza envelope", Israeli Channel 13 correspondent Almog Boker said. "The salvos of rockets simply did not stop [...] today was unprecedented in terms of rockets launched."
Social media users shared photos and videos showing the Israeli occupation's soldiers running for shelter in the Gaza envelope.

The Israeli occupation's media reported earlier that sires were sounded in "Tel Aviv" and "Gush Dan", as well as in Askalan and the settlements of the Gaza envelope.

"For the first time, sirens were sounded in Rishon LeZion," Al Mayadeen's correspondent reported.
Israeli media reported that "more than 750 rockets were fired at Israel" in the past few hours, adding that "the Home Front Command issued an exceptional order for the Gaza envelope [settlers] to go into shelters until further notice."
Despite the Israeli occupation having military supremacy, Israeli newspaper Haaretz reported earlier, it was unsuccessful in deterring the Palestinian resistance factions. "It is still very hard to achieve the Israelis' ambitions of driving a wedge between the Gaza Strip and the West Bank."
The Israeli occupation launched an aggression on the Gaza Strip on Friday, and Al-Quds Brigades announced that Tayseer Al-Jaabari, a military commander in the northern Gaza Strip, had been martyred.
Our correspondent reported that the death toll of the Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip has reached 31 martyrs and more than 220 wounded since Friday afternoon.
The latest tally, however, shows that 41 Palestinians have been martyred so far, with 311 others wounded.
Palestinian sources told Al Mayadeen earlier today that the Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) movement is refusing any mediation efforts made by any parties until they take revenge for the aggression and the assassinations carried out by the Israeli occupation.
PIJ Spokesperson Tariq Salmi confirmed Sunday that the Resistance's missiles are only a small part of the price that the Israeli occupation will pay over its crimes and the assassination of commander Taiseer Al-Jaabari.
Late last night, Al Mayadeen's correspondent reported that the Israeli occupation committed a horrifying crime in the Jabalya refugee camp, located in the northern Gaza Strip.
Five people were martyred, including three children, and many others have been wounded. Netizens have said that the Israeli occupation's raids on the area have martyred nine people so far.
