Rocket Fired from Gaza Lands in Southern Israel
A rocket fired from Gaza landed in southern Israel.
Code Red sirens sounded in communities on the border with Gaza before the rocket landed in an open area on Monday evening. There were no injuries and no obvious damage. Area residents reported hearing an explosion.
It was the second rocket fired from Gaza at southern Israel in less than a week. A rocket fired from Gaza on Wednesday that landed in a field caused no injuries or damage.
A message from our Publisher & CEO Rachel Fishman Feddersen

I hope you appreciated this article. Before you go, I’d like to ask you to please support the Forward.
At a time when other newsrooms are closing or cutting back, the Forward has removed its paywall and invested additional resources to report on the ground from Israel and around the U.S. on the impact of the war, rising antisemitism and polarized discourse.
Readers like you make it all possible. We’ve started our Passover Fundraising Drive, and we need 1,800 readers like you to step up to support the Forward by April 21. Members of the Forward board are even matching the first 1,000 gifts, up to $70,000.
This is a great time to support independent Jewish journalism, because every dollar goes twice as far.
