17 August 2019Three rockets were launched this evening from Gaza to Israeli areas around the Strip, including the town of Sderot, where the anti-missile warning sirens sounded just before. An Israeli military spokesman said so.

The spokesman explained that two rockets were intercepted by the Iron Dome defense system. The third would not have caused damage.

This is the second attack in two days: the first occurred yesterday evening. Last night, in response, the Israeli air force struck two positions of the Palestinian armed radical movement Hamas.
