Palestinians in north Gaza fired two Qassams towards Sderot Tuesday evening. The rockets landed in open areas outside the western Negev city, and no injuries or damage were reported.
The al-Quds Brigades, Islamic Jihad's armed wing, claimed responsibility for the attack.
The attack came just a few hours after Prime Minister Ehud Olmert 'smeeting with Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas in Jerusalem, during which the two leaders agreed to draft a joint declaration of principles to resolve the core issues of the Israeli-Palestinian dispute.
Earlier on Tuesday, a Sderot resident was lightly to moderately wounded by shrapnel and several other people suffered shock after a Qassam rocket hit a house in the town.
The rocket landed directly in a bedroom, when all the residents of the home were hiding the bomb shelter. A man standing near the house was injured from shrapnel in his eye and was treated by emergency services.
Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigade, Fatah's military wing, claimed responsibility for the attack.
