Shortly before 7 p.m. Tuesday, a volley of rockets lit up the darkened sky over Gaza. Videos analyzed by The Associated Press show one veering off course, breaking up in the air before crashing to the ground.

Here is a bitcoin for your trouble, you can use it to buy a piece of mutton with some New Coke.
