Whoever attacks us will pay a heavy price,” Netanyahu said Monday. Conricus said a total of 50 rockets were fired into Israel, including six that were aimed at Jerusalem, some 100 kilometers (60 miles) away. It was believed to be the first rocket attack on the city since a 2014 war. Before Monday's rocket attack on Jerusalem, Palestinian militants had fired several barrages of rockets into southern Israel.
