A rocket fired from the Gaza Strip landed near the center of Sderot.

Israeli police officials said the rocket that landed Monday in the the southern Israeli town caused no injuries, Ha’aretz reported.

Sderot has been the target of thousands of Palestinian rockets in recent years, but attacks have become rare since an Egyptian-brokered truce went into effect in June.

On Saturday, a rocket landed in an open area of the Negev desert, causing no injuries.
