The Way This Rocket Launcher Was Camouflaged Is Creative — And Terrifyingly Dangerous

New video posted by the Al Aqsa Martyrs Brigades, a militant group associated with Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas’ Fatah party, took that warning to a new level, showing the moment a militant engineered a bread cart to fire a rocket.
