Hamas fires 3 Kassams at Ashkelon, IAF hits back
Three Kassam rockets were fired at southern Ashkelon on Tuesday evening. The rockets landed in a national park near the city's industrial zone, causing no casualties. Hamas claimed responsibility for the attack.

Gaza sources said Israel carried out several air strikes overnight, but the army confirmed only one. On Tuesday evening, Palestinians said three civilians were lightly wounded in an IAF strike.

Separately on Tuesday, Defense Minister Ehud Barak said Israel would defeat its enemies and that the IDF would succeed in stopping terrorism from the southern Hebron Hills, where security officials estimate the two Dimona bombers originated.

"Just like your parents provided the solutions when they fought in the Jordan Valley, we... will now solutions for the terrorism in Hebron and the Gaza Strip," Barak told cadets in the Officers' Course during an exercise at the Shizafon Base near Eilat.
