IDF soldiers fired a ground-to-ground missile at a group of terrorists on Tuesday night shortly after the terrorists fired two rockets at Sderot.  Due to a technical failure, the missile missed its target and hit a nearby building instead of the terrorist group.  Local Arabs said that three people were wounded in the missile strike.

The incident took place near Jabalia in northern Gaza.  The two rockets landed near Israeli towns in the western Negev.  No injuries were reported.
