JERUSALEM (AP) — The Israeli military said Palestinian fighters fired six rockets from the Gaza Strip into the south of the country on Thursday, hours after an Israeli army raid in the West Bank killed 10 Palestinians.
The rocket attacks, for which no Palestinian group immediately claimed responsibility, appear to be retaliation for Wednesday’s raid on Nablus.
Anti-aircraft defenses intercepted five of the rockets launched towards the cities of Ashkelon and Sderot, the Israeli armed forces reported. Another shell fell in an uninhabited field. No casualties or damage were reported.
