An Israeli was wounded by Palestinian rocket fire. One of four homemade Kassam rockets fired overnight at the Nitzanit settlement in the Gaza Strip wounded an Israeli, the army said Monday. Hamas fired the rockets amid vows to avenge Israel’s assassination Saturday of its leader, Abdel Aziz Rantissi. The crude weapons also have been launched over the boundary into Israel proper, causing structural damage but few casualties.
