Sderot has been a target for rocket attacks several times this week. On Monday morning, Gaza terrorists fired a Kassam rocket on the Sderot area, minutes after students arrived at their classes for the first day of school.
The rocket exploded in an open area, reducing injuries to shock and trauma.
Later in the day, Gaza terrorists fired two more Kassam rockets as children were returning home from their first day at school.
The short-range missiles exploded in open areas and caused no damage or physical injuries.
On Sunday morning, Gaza terrorists fired three Kassam rockets on the Western Negev, one of them damaging a building in the industrial area near Sderot. One person was lightly wounded and a second was treated for shock.
IAF aircraft struck two sites in northern Gaza in which weapons were produced and stored on Monday night, in response to the repeated rocket attacks.
Direct hits were identified and all Israeli aircraft returned safely to their bases.
