Three incendiary balloons reach Sderot – 2nd Gaza attack in a day

Three Palestinian incendiary balloons again reached Sderot from Gaza on Wednesday, after a long pause. Last summer, swarms of these balloons caused dozens of fires in southern Israel. Earlier in the day, the Palestinians fired four rockets at Israeli locations. Two were intercepted by Iron Dome and the others landed on empty ground. Palestinians sources report that the Israeli Air Force had launched retaliatory action over the Gaza Strip.
