Defense funding OK’d


Published: Thursday, December 27, 2007 10:42 PM EST
(JTA) n Israel’s security cabinet approved funding for a new defense system against Kassam and Katyusha rockets.

The Iron Dome rocket defense system, approved Sunday after several months of comparing 14 different systems, will intercept short- and medium-range rockets like the ones that have been terrorizing the country’s northern and southern borders. Developing the defense system will cost nearly $207 million. The system is expected to be operational in Sderot in 2-1/2 years.
