The IDF has responded to a rocket attack on a kindergarten in Sderot by hitting four military sites in Gaza.

Israeli pilots targeted “components of Hamas’s operational infrastructure,” IDF spokesman Peter Lerner reported.

On Friday night, a projectile from Gaza hit a school in the border town of Sderot. No-one was harmed, though reports indicate that some locals suffered shock from the explosions.

Another rocket fired from Gaza fell in an open area of the Sha’ar HaNegev region.
