(August 8, 2018 / JNS) At least two Israelis have been injured as a result of rockets being fired from the Gaza Strip that landed in Sderot on Wednesday evening.
According to Magen David Adom, the two injured, a 34-year-old man with wounds from glass shards and a 20-year-old with light injuries, were evacuated to Barzilai Medical Center in Ashkelon.
While there were no immediate reports on injuries, the IDF did show pictures of damage to the vehicle.
Yesterday, an IDF tank shelled a Hamas observation post along the Gaza border, which killed two terrorists, after an attack by Hamas snipers.
The attacks by Gaza terrorists have been part of the ongoing tensions between Israel and Hamas in recent months, which have included near weekly protests every Friday along the Israel-Gaza border.
Reports in recent weeks have indicated that a long-term ceasefire between Israel and Hamas may be in the works that would include easing the humanitarian situation in the Gaza Strip.
