Gaza Strip: Mujahideen Shura Council (MSC) militants fired a rocket on Israel
Gaza militants have fired a rocket into southern Israel after the death in custody of a Palestinian who suffered from cancer, Israeli police say.
“There was a rocket that was fired,” police spokesman Micky Rosenfeld told AFP on Tuesday. “It landed in an open area,” he said, adding there were no immediate reports of casualties or property damage.
Earlier in the day Palestinian witnesses said militants in Gaza City had fired three mortar rounds on Israel.
The Israeli army initially said one projectile had landed in the Jewish state, without causing any casualties, but later said none had.
