A rocket launched from the Gaza Strip at the southern city of Sderot a short while ago was intercepted, the military says.

Sirens had sounded in the city for the second time today.

There are no reports of damage or injuries.

The rocket was launched at Sderot just minutes after a siren sounded to mark the beginning of Memorial Day.
