In an update, the IDF says that five of the 10 rockets launched from central Gaza’s Deir al-Balah this evening at the Ashdod area were intercepted by air defenses.
At least one of the five rockets that were not intercepted hit Ashkelon, causing damage and injuring one man.
Home Front Command officers are operating at the sites of rocket impacts, alongside other rescue authorities, the military adds.
