Sderot: A rocket apparently fired by Palestinians in the Gaza Strip hit an Israeli border town on Tuesday, the volunteer rescue service Zaka said.

Witnesses said they heared two explosions in the town of Sderot.

Zaka said there were no casualties from the attack, which would be the first of its kind since Israel and Gaza's Islamist Hamas rulers entered an Egyptian-brokered truce last week.
