Mortar shell fired from Gaza falls inside enclave

Judah Ari Gross is The Times of Israel's religions and Diaspora affairs correspondent.

Palestinian terrorists in the southern Gaza Strip fire a mortar shell toward southern Israel, but the projectile fails to clear the border and lands within the enclave, the military says.

As the shell was not heading toward a populated area, the launch did not trigger an alarm, but a notification was sent to cellphones in the area.
