This map is from the December 2007 report “Rocket Threat from the Gaza Strip, 2000-2007,” by the Intelligence and Terrorism Information Center at the Israel Intelligence Heritage and Commemoration Center (IICC).
The report notes:
The operational and technological trends clearly showed that the rockets have not begun to scratch the surface of the impact they can have on Israel. In the coming years the terrorist organizations can be expected to continue their efforts to introduce technological improvements which are liable to increase rocket ranges, the amount of explosives the warheads can carry and their degree of accuracy (following the Hezbollah model in Lebanon). There may be much more rocket fire, both as technological developments extend the rockets’ shelf life and because following political developments, Hamas may join the organizations launching rockets. At the same time, there may be an increase in the organizations’ arsenals of standard rockets which have a range of more than 20 kilometers (more than 12 miles), which would enable them to attack more settlements.
