Two rockets fired into Israel from Gaza:

 Palestinian militants in the Gaza Strip fired two rockets into southern Israel yesterday, without causing any casualties or damage, the army said. “The two rockets landed in an open area in the Eshkol region,” an army spokesman told AFP, referring to a region bordering Gaza. Israel routinely responds to the rocket and mortar fire with air raids on the Islamist Hamas-ruled strip. Gaza’s main militant factions last month agreed to observe a period of calm after weeks of increased rocket fire and rising tensions along the border which prompted a warning from Arab leaders that there was a risk of a major new Israeli invasion.
