New rocket attack against Israel from Gaza
11.05.2010, Israel A Kassam rocket fired from the Gaza Strip struck near the Israeli city of Ashkelon. The incident on Saturday was the first such attack in a month and came only hours after the executive of the Palestine Liberation Organization in Ramallah had given its backing for indirect peace talks with Israel. The rocket landed near a populated area, but no injuries or damage were reported. Ten such attacks occurred in April, and five in March, according to Israeli authorities.
On Sunday night, Israel’s Air Force struck several tunnels in the southern Gaza Strip in retaliation. "The IDF holds Hamas solely responsible for what goes on in Gaza," the IDF said in a statement.
