Two long-range rockets were fired from the Gaza Strip at central Israel a short while ago.
The projectiles apparently landed in the sea off the coast of Tel Aviv. Residents of the area report hearing a blast.
Hamas claims responsibility for the attack, saying it launched two rockets at Tel Aviv.
No sirens sounded amid the incident, as the rockets were not heading for populated areas.
The last time Hamas fired rockets at Tel Aviv was in late May.
