Earlier, the news agency published a photo showing one of its members dead in the Sinai Peninsula named Hatab al-Maqdasi.

Ten days ago, ISIS claimed responsibility for the four rockets that were fired into Eilat from the Sinai Peninsula.

The organization issued a statement saying: “A number of rockets were launched at Jewish centers in Eilat, known as Umm Rashrash. The Jews and Crusaders should know that the war of the apostles will not save them in any way.”
