Palestinians in the northern Gaza Strip fired a Kassam rocket at Israel on
Saturday morning, the third since both Israel and Hamas declared cease-fires
on January 18.

The rocket landed in an open area near a kibbutz in the Ashkelon area.

There were no reports of casualties or damage in the attack.

Prior to the rocket landing, 'Color Red' sirens sounded in the area,
prompting residents to seek shelter.

On Thursday, a rocket was fired at the Sha'ar Hanegev region, and on
Wednesday another landed in the Eskol region. Both rockets landed in open
areas, causing no casualties or damage.
