Palestinian rockets into Israel attacked targets near populated city south of Tel Aviv, while Israeli jets aimed at targets in Gaza, in an increasingly heated dispute that has sparked fears of another war. Israeli police said the long-range Grad rockets fired from Gaza, ruled by Hamas, hit the town of Ashdod and an area north of the Mediterranean port.
There were no immediate reports of casualties. Emergency services reported that one of the rockets landed near Yavneh, a town about 45 kilometers from Gaza and about 20 kilometers from Tel Aviv. This area was bombed between December 2008 and January 2009 during the war in Gaza. Border Violence in Gaza has worsened in recent days, and a bomb attack Wednesday in Jerusalem, which Israeli police blamed on Palestinian militants, left one woman dead and at least 50 wounded.
It was the first such bombing in the city since 2004.
