After a relatively quiet week a Qassam hits Israeli territory once again. A rocket fired from the Gaza Strip exploded Sunday night in an open field west of the southern city of Sderot. No physical injuries or damage were reported.
A Color Red alert was sounded close to 23:45 pm in Sderot and nearby communities. Seconds later, a explosion was heard in the area.
Since the end of Operation Cast Lead in early 2009, a relative state of calm has been maintained around the Gaza Strip, despite occasional shooting incidents, attempts to place explosives and the firing of Qassam rockets.
