The Palestinian Islamic Jihad militia fired rockets from the embattled Gaza Strip at Israel almost two years after the start of the Gaza War.<\/p>\n
The attack was in “response to the crimes of the Zionist enemy against our people,” the military wing of the terrorist organization, which has fired rockets at Israel before, said in a statement.<\/p>\n
The Israeli military reported on Sunday morning that two projectiles had been launched from the central section of the coastal strip towards Israeli territory.<\/p>\n
They said one rocket was intercepted by air defence, while a second landed in an open area.<\/p>\n
Shortly before, there had been rocket alarms in Israeli border towns as well as the city of Netivot.<\/p>\n
Since the beginning of the Gaza War, Israel has been attacked with thousands of rockets from the Gaza Strip, but these attacks have now become significantly less frequent.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
