An IDF aerial strike killed two Arab terrorists who were identified as launching three Kassam rockets on the Negev, military spokesmen said. The rocket fire sent two Sderot residents into shock.

The retaliation was the first in several days and follows three days on renewed Kassam attacks against Israel. Terrorist leaders have escalated calls for revenge against Israel since the riot of terrorists earlier this week at the Ketziot prison in the southern Negev. One terrorist died and 30 guards and terrorists were wounded in the massive riot.
