This military map image could be re-created using vector graphics as an SVG file. This has several advantages; see Commons:Media for cleanup for more information. If an SVG form of this image is available, please upload it and afterwards replace this template with {{vector version available|new image name}}. It is recommended to name the SVG file “Rocketpopmap.svg”—then the template Vector version available (or Vva) does not need the new image name parameter.
This military map image was uploaded in the JPEG format even though it consists of non-photographic data. This information could be stored more efficiently or accurately in the PNG or SVG format. If possible, please upload a PNG or SVG version of this image without compression artifacts, derived from a non-JPEG source (or with existing artifacts removed). After doing so, please tag the JPEG version with {{Superseded|NewImage.ext}} and remove this tag. This tag should not be applied to photographs or scans. If this image is a diagram or other image suitable for vectorisation, please tag this image with {{Convert to SVG}} instead of {{BadJPEG}}. If not suitable for vectorisation, use {{Convert to PNG}}.

This map shows the rocket ranges as they relate to the population of southern Israel, and how much time people have to take cover given the distance the rocket travels. Those living in the 10 kilometer range have 15 seconds to find safety once the alarm sounds, those in the 20 km range have 30 seconds, 30 km – 45 seconds, and 40 km a minute. With the increased range of the rocket fire from Gaza, nearly 1 million people, or a seventh of Israel’s population live in danger and under threat from rocket attacks. The goal of operation Cast Lead has been to reduce the number of rocket attacks against the inhabitants of southern Israel.
العربية: تُظهر هذه الخريطة نطاقات الصواريخ من حيث صلتها بسكان الجنوب ، وكم من الوقت يجب على الناس أن يحتموا بالنظر إلى المسافة التي ينتقل بها الصاروخ. أولئك الذين يعيشون في نطاق 10 كيلومترات لديهم 15 ثانية ليجدوا الأمان بمجرد صدور الإنذار ، وأولئك الذين يعيشون في نطاق 20 كم لديهم 30 ثانية ، و 30 كم - 45 ثانية ، و 40 كم في الدقيقة. مع اتساع نطاق إطلاق الصواريخ من غزة ، يعيش ما يقرب من مليون شخص ، أو سدس سكان إسرائيل في خطر وتهديد من الهجمات الصاروخية. كان الهدف من عملية الرصاص المصبوب هو تقليل عدد الهجمات الصاروخية ضد سكان جنوب إسرائيل.
