A massive barrage of rockets has been fired from Gaza towards the Israeli city of Ashkelon at 5 pm local time.
Abu Ubaida, the spokesman of Hamas' Izzideen al-Qassam Brigades, had told residents earlier to leave the city before 5 pm.
Al Jazeera correspondent reporting from the ground said he has never seen this volume of rockets fired from Gaza.
