Sirens blare in Tel Aviv as two rockets fired from Gaza
Just after 9pm local time residents of Israel's coastal city were forced to find safety, due to incoming projectiles from the Palestinian territory
Two rockets fired from the Gaza Strip reached the Tel Aviv area Thursday night.
Sirens alerted residents that rockets were coming into the area just after 9 p.m. local time.
Kan, the public broadcaster, quoted the Israeli army as saying that the rockets came from the Gaza Strip, which is controlled by Hamas. Kan said that Islamic Jihad, a terrorist group, claimed responsibility for the firing.
The Iron Dome missile defence system intercepted one and the other landed in an open area.
There were no injuries and no damage reported.
