Rocket Fired from Gaza Hits Israel

Palestinian militants in the Gaza Strip fired a rocket which hit open ground in southern Israel on Monday, without causing casualties, Israeli police said.

"There was a rocket that was fired... No damage or injuries were caused," police spokesman Micky Rosenfeld told Agence France Presse.

Last month, a series of Israeli air strikes and Palestinian rocket salvoes followed Israel's killing of a Gaza militant leader.

Palestinians in Gaza fired more than 310 rockets at Israel whose warplanes carried out dozens of air strikes, killing 25 people, among them 14 members of militant group Islamic Jihad.
