'Unknown' Gaza militants fired rocket at Israel, Hamas claims

Air raid sirens sounded on Tuesday night after at least one rocket fired from the Gaza Strip landed in southern Israel, Israeli television news reports said.

There were no reports of damage or injuries and the remnants of the device were found near the port city of Ashdod, about 20km north of the Gaza Strip, an Israeli ambulance service spokesman said.

No group in the Gaza Strip had immediately taken responsibility for the launch. Israeli media speculated that it may have been an errant rocket that was not intentionally aimed at Israeli territory.

A Hamas official later said unknown militants in the territory had fired a rocket at Israel.
