Katyushas hit Kiryat Shmona

There are no reports of injuries or damage.

Three Katyusha rockets landed in Israel's northern city Kiryat Shmona this morning. There are no reports of injuries or damage.

Israel is preparing for the possibility that terror organizations will try to hit other targets in the north.

Reports from Lebanon claim that the IDF fired 2-4 shells toward the sources of the rocket fire.

An IDF spokesperson said that in fighting against Hamas in Gaza, the Israeli Air Force hit about 60 targets overnight, including Hamas police headquarters in Gaza City, an area rigged with explosive devices intended for detonation against IDF forces, five rocket launching sites, and around 35 weapons smuggling tunnels in the southern Gaza Strip.

Six soldiers were wounded in ground operations throughout the night. In one incident, two officers were moderately wounded and an officer and two soldiers were lightly wounded when they were fired upon by gunmen. Soldiers returned fire and hit the assailants. Another soldier was lightly wounded in a second incident.
