Palestinian rocket fire into Israel continued yesterday, a day after a Qassam hit the yard of a house in Sderot and the Israel Defense Forces killed two Hamas militants in the northern Gaza Strip. A Qassam rocket struck an open field in the western Negev yesterday morning, causing neither injury nor damage.

Several hours earlier, Palestinian militants fired a mortar shell at IDF troops near the Gaza border fence. No one was injured in the incident, either.

Palestinians in Gaza launched seven Qassam rockets at the western Negev on Friday, one of which struck the yard of a home in the town of Sderot, causing damage. Israel Radio reported that a 14-year-old boy was lightly injured and subsequently evacuated to Barzilai Medical Center in Ashkelon.

Meanwhile, IDF troops on Friday shot and killed two Hamas militants in the northern Gaza Strip town of Beit Hanun, Palestinian sources said.

The total number of Palestinians killed in the Strip since Thursday morning stands at 11, including four civilians. At least nine Palestinians were killed by IDF in several separate incidents in the Gaza Strip on Thursday.
