JERUSALEM (AA) – Rockets fired from the Gaza Strip damaged properties in an Israeli town near the besieged enclave, Israeli media reported on Friday.

At least four houses were damaged in the town, Channel 13 reported without providing further details.

A missile also struck a car in the Israeli town of Sha'ar Hanegev, but no injuries were reported.

Another missile fell on one of the towns adjacent to Gaza, but no human casualties were reported, said the same media outlet.

“A resident of Sderot was slightly injured after being hit on her way to the protected area,” the broadcaster said, adding that she received initial medical treatment and was transferred to Barzilai Hospital in Ashkelon.

Sirens sounded continuously inside Israeli towns surrounding the Gaza Strip, as well as in the southern Israeli city of Ashkelon, shortly after the humanitarian pause ended and Israel resumed war on Gaza.

Israel resumed its military operations against the Gaza Strip immediately after the end of the humanitarian pause, targeting various areas in the north, center, and south of the Strip since the morning, resulting in dozens of deaths and injuries, according to the Palestinian Ministry of Health in Gaza.

At least 109 Palestinians were killed and several others injured as Israel resumed striking various areas in the Gaza Strip within three hours following the end of the pause, the Health Ministry in Gaza said.

The pause between Israel and Hamas, which went into effect on Nov. 24, ended on Friday morning.
