Three shepherds are wounded, including one seriously, in a rocket strike near the southern Gaza border town of Shokeda, medics say.

The Magen David Adom ambulance service says it is taking the three men in their 40s to the Soroka hospital in Beersheba for further treatment.

The other two men are listed in moderate condition, MDA says.

Two victims were treated at the scene, while the third made his way to the entrance of Netivot, where medics found him.
