A truck driver was lightly injured by a rocket impact near Kibbutz Re’im a short while ago, medics say.

According to the IDF, a barrage of some 15 rockets was launched from southern Gaza’s Khan Younis at Israeli border communities.

Several rockets were intercepted by the Iron Dome system, but others impacted the Re’im and Gama Junction area.

The Magen David Adom ambulance service says it is treating a man aged 37 in good condition, after he was hurt by a rocket impact.

In recent days there have been several rocket attacks from Khan Younis. The IDF has since issued an evacuation warning for Gazans in the area.
