Terrorists fired two rockets from Gaza into Israel on Sunday afternoon.

“Following the sirens that sounded in the communities near the Gaza Strip at 12:55 p.m., two projectiles that crossed from the Gaza Strip into Israeli territory were identified and fell in open areas,” the IDF said.

There were no immediate reports of injuries or damage.

Air-raid sirens were activated in the Sdot Negev and Sha’ar Hanegev regions, including in kibbutzim Sa’ad, Nahal Oz and Kfar Aza.

A rocket reportedly hit an open area at Sa’ad.

Hours after the attack, the IDF announced it had “dismantled the launch site from which Hamas terrorists launched two rockets toward the Israeli communities earlier today.”

The military “struck and dismantled Hamas’s launch site in the Shejaiya area [of Gaza City], from which two rockets were fired toward Sa’ad, a kibbutz near the Gaza Strip, earlier today,” according to the statement on Thursday night.

“The IDF will continue to operate against all terrorist organizations in the Gaza Strip,” it added.

On Thursday evening, air-raid sirens pealed in Kibbutz Nir Am, in the Sha’ar Hanegev region, as Palestinian terrorists fired a rocket toward the Jewish state, according to the IDF. There were no immediate reports of injuries or damage.

Later on Thursday, the IDF said it struck and dismantled the launcher responsible for the rocket fired at Nir Am.
