Rocket fire at Sha'ar Hanegev, Israeli army retaliates

The Israeli army announced that the Israeli Air Force attacked terror infrastructure belonging to Hamas in the northern area of the Gaza Strip following rocket fire from the Hamas-controlled enclave. 

The rocket fire, which occurred early Monday morning at the start of the Simchat Torah holiday, was in the direction of the Sha'ar Hanegev Regional Council and prompted Code Red sirens to sound in the area, YNet reported on Monday.

Following a search, the Israeli army Spokesperson's Unit announced that the rocket had not fallen in Israeli territory and most likely fell within the Gaza Strip. Furthermore, the Israeli army noted that it holds the Hamas terrorist organization solely responsible for actions in the Gaza Strip.
