Two Al-Qassam missiles fired on Israel

GAZA, July 27 (KUNA) -- Two Al-Qassam missiles were launched from the northern Gaza Strip Friday evening on southern Israel, a military spokesman said. One of the missiles caused damage to houses.
The Palestinian militants fired one Al-Qassam rocket into the western Negev, east of Gaza, Friday evening, while an earlier one had landed in Ashkelon, the spokesman told Radio Israel.
The first rocket fell on an open field in Ashkelon's southern industrial zone and sparked a fire in the field, but no one was injured and no damage was caused.
As for the second rocket, it landed in a western Negev community and damaged many homes but no one was injured.
According to the spokesman, at least seven rockets have been fired from the Strip into Israel since Thursday. One of them struck a home in the western Negev city of Sderot but no injuries or damages were reported. (end) zt.msa KUNA 280005 Jul 07NNNN
