Three people are wounded, one of them seriously, by shrapnel in Tel Aviv following a rocket attack from the Gaza Strip, medics say.

The Hamas terror group claimed responsibility for the rocket fire, with eyewitnesses saying they saw three projectiles fly out from the Strip.

The Magen David Adom ambulance service says it is treating a man in his 20s who is seriously hurt by shrapnel, and a woman aged 43 who is lightly hurt. A third victim is moderately wounded

It is unclear if the shrapnel is from a direct rocket impact or from falling shrapnel following an Iron Dome interception.
