2 rockets hit western Negev

Two projectiles fired from northern Gaza explode in Sha'ar Hanegev Regional Council. No injuries reported, power line sustains damage

Lull's end? Two rockets fired from northern Gaza on Tuesday night landed in open areas in Sha'ar Hanegev Regional Council.

 

The color red alert preceded the explosions. One rocket hit a power line near one of the council's kibbutzim, and the other landed near the border fence. No injuries were reported.

 

The rocket which hit the power line caused a local blackout. An Israel Power Corp team has been dispatched to repair it and restore power to the area.

 

The fire is the first in the past few weeks, and follows what was a relatively clam weekend, on the heels of the Palestinian bid for UN recognition.
