More Than 350 Rockets Fired Toward Israel, Sirens Sound in Tel Aviv 

On Saturday evening, Operation Breaking Dawn continued against Palestinian Islamic Jihad in the Gaza Strip as more than 350 rockets were launched toward Israel in the first full day of fighting between the two groups. 

The Iron Dome missile defense system proved to be effective and had a reported interception rate of about 95 percent of rockets launched against Israel.
