Rifai: Aqaba rocket fired from Sinai
[04/08/2010 22:28]

Amman, Aug.4 (Petra) -- Prime Minister Samir Rifai said the rocket which hit the city of Aqaba last Monday, killing a Jordanian citizen and injuring five others, was fired from Egypt''s Sinai.

In an interview with Agence France Presse (AFP), Rifai said "our investigation shows, as Egyptian sources are saying, that it was from the Sinai," noting that Jordan is coordinating closely with Egypt in the ongoing investigation.

"We are going to continue investigating who exactly attacked us, and those responsible will pay the price," Rifai said.

"Jordanian blood was spilt.

We will pursue anyone or any group who was involved because targeting Jordan intentionally or unintentionally is something that we will not stand for" he said.

Ook Egypte is tot die conclusie gekomen:
 
[On] Wednesday, Egyptian security sources confirmed the rockets were fired from the Sinai Peninsula and claimed that armed Palestinians from Gaza were responsible.
 
"Armed Palestinians from Gaza were responsible for the firing of rockets," an Egyptian security source claimed, adding that the rockets were launched from the Sinai Peninsula.
 
Egypt's official news agency MENA agreed with this assessment: "The preliminary information that the security has received indicates that Palestinian factions from the Gaza Strip are behind that operation," the state news agency quoted an unnamed security source as saying.
 
 
Ook volgens Israel werden de raketten, waarvan er ook een in Eilat en een in de Rode Zee terecht kwam, afgeschoten vanuit de Sinai. Door deze raketten is (wederom) duidelijk geworden dat de Palestijnse extremisten niet alleen een probleem zijn voor Israel.
