A pair of rockets fired from the Gaza Strip landed near the coastal city of Ashkelon. There were no reports of damage from Tuesday’s attack, The Jerusalem Post reported. Rocket fire from Gaza entered its second week Tuesday, with two more Kassams landing in the western Negev. One struck a residential neighborhood in Sderot, damaging a building and several cars. Israel responded with airstrikes on two Hamas camps in the northern Gaza Strip. Hamas officials said one of the strikes destroyed a building used by its militia, known as the Executive Force. The attack reportedly wounded six people.
