Kiryat Gat, Rehovot switch to emergency footing

The southern city of Kiryat Gat announces that it is going on emergency footing, after rockets from the Gaza Strip once again target Israeli towns.

The municipality says the city market and public pools will be closed, and kindergartens will be held in shelters.

The city of Rehovot opens its public bomb shelters and sets up a municipal emergency hotline.
