Palestinian terrorists in the Gaza Strip fired several rockets at Israel on Saturday evening, the Israel Defense Forces confirmed.

Sirens were activated in the Israeli border communities of Ein HaShlosha and Nirim, in line with established protocol.

The rockets all landed in open areas, according to the military.

On May 26, three projectiles were fired from southern Gaza toward Israeli border communities. Two fell inside the Strip, while a third was intercepted before crossing into Israeli territory.

On May 23, a rocket from Gaza was downed over southern Israel. Two days before that, on May 21, Israeli air defenses intercepted a rocket from Gaza that had been heading for Ashkelon.
