(IsraelNN.com) Five Kassam rockets struck the western Negev region over the weekend, wounding two people. The Israel Air Force (IAF) carried out an air strike in Gaza killing two Islamic Jihad terrorists.

Two rockets that slammed into downtown Sderot Friday morning lightly wounded two residents and damaged homes and cars. The injured were evacuated to Ashkelon’s Barzilai Medical Center.

One of the homes damaged belongs to the Cohen family, whose son was injured last year in a Kassam attack. The family was in the home’s “safe room” during the attack.

Another rocket landed in a cow barn in a western Negev kibbutz, causing damage but no injuries. Saturday night, two more Kassams were fired – both landing in open areas and causing neither injuries or damage.

Islamic Jihad claimed its terrorists had fired the rockets in retaliation for the killing of one of its top commanders in Shechem.
