Israeli media reported that a rocket was fired from the Gaza Strip and landed in an open area in the Gaza Strip envelope settlements causing the emergency alert systems to go off in the "Nativ Haasra" and "Yad Mordechai" settlements.
The occupation's artillery forces then bombed a resistance watchtower in Beit Lahiya, according to Israeli media: adding that the occupation prime minister would be conducting an assessment of the security situation.
The Israeli media scorned last night's ceasefire in light of this attack.
"They will tell us now that lightning struck a missile launcher," a reporter for Yedioth Ahronoth said.
"What a deterrent, only 20 hours after the agreement, they launched missiles," the Channel 13 correspondent said.
