The Israel Defense Forces says one rocket was launched at the southern town of Kissufim earlier.

The IDF says the rocket landed in an open area, without causing any injuries.

The Iron Dome air defense system was not used as the rocket was heading for an unpopulated area, the IDF adds.

In total, 33 projectiles have been launched at southern Israel from the Gaza Strip Tuesday, according to IDF tallies.
