Gaza terrorists fired five rockets at the western Negev on Thursday evening. Residents of Sderot said they heard four explosions, apparently from strikes within the city. It is not clear if there were casualties in the attacks.
Israel has closed all Gaza crossings in response to attacks from the area, and has allowed only medicine, food, and limited amounts of fuel into the area. However, Hamas has destroyed a large section of the security wall on the southern border, and at least 350,000 residents of Gaza have entered Egypt since Wednesday morning. Many have returned with various goods.
