Hamas rockets are often considered weak ammunition compared to Israeli high-tech weaponry. But how dangerous are they?

An i24 journalist holds a two-foot-long, heavy piece of a Hamas rocket that fell inside Israeli territory, explaining that these shards and fragments come raining down hundreds of feet from the sky even after the missile has fallen.

He asks former IDF spokesman Peter Lerner how Israelis should deal with this reality and how to counter claims in the media that the danger of these rockets is negligible in comparison to IDF weaponry.

Lerner agrees, stating unequivically that even pieces of Hamas rockets can kill you. Watch and listen to his advice.
