Rocket fired from Gaza toward 'Sderot': Israeli media
Israeli media report that at least three explosions were heard in the Gaza envelope settlements after rockets were fired from Gaza.
Israeli settlers in the Gaza envelope settlements reported hearing at least three explosions, at least one of which was due to the Israeli Iron Dome intercepting a rocket fired from Gaza over the settlement of "Sderot", Israeli media reported on Wednesday.
"A rocket was launched from Gaza toward the city of Sderot, and it was intercepted by the Iron Dome," Israeli media said, citing an IOF spokesperson.

The reports came hours after the Israeli occupation said air raid sirens were sounded in the settlements of "Sderot", "Efim", and "Nir Am".
Palestinian resistance movement Hamas said Sunday it downed and captured an IOF military remote surveillance drone over Gaza.
The Ezzenddine Al-Qassam Brigades, Hamas' military wing, said they took control of a drone during the recent aggression on Gaza and extracted sensitive information related to the occupation forces from it.
Below are some of the pictures that were released along with the statement.
The takeover came days after the IOF carried out violent raids in Jenin in the occupied West Bank, resulting in at least 10 Palestinian deaths and 20 injuries.
Three days of national mourning were proclaimed by the Palestinian Authority.
Palestinian resistance factions in Gaza retaliated later by firing a salvo of missiles at the occupied city of Askalan.
