Israeli Army Radio said the army had intercepted two rockets fired from central Gaza toward Ashkelon, triggering air raid sirens in areas around the Palestinian enclave.
No casualties or material damage were reported.

On Wednesday, the Israeli army said it had detected the firing of four rockets from Gaza, claiming to have intercepted two of them while two others fell in open areas.
This comes amid Israel’s ongoing and unrelenting genocidal war on the Gaza Strip that has killed nearly 44,900 victims, mostly women and children, since October 7, 2023.
The International Criminal Court (ICC) issued arrest warrants last month for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant, for war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza. (T/RE1/P2)
