Rockets from Gaza Continue; Girl Killed by Misfire; Iron Dome Intercepts Two


Four more rockets were fired into Israel from the Gaza Strip on Tuesday, one exploding in a southern Israeli community (no injuries or damage reported); and two successfully intercepted by the Iron Dome defensive system. The fourth rocket failed to reach its target in Israel and fell inside the Gaza Strip killing a 3-year old Palestinian girl.  In the week and a half since the kidnapping of three Israeli teens and the subsequent search of the West Bank and Gaza by Israeli soldiers, more than 20 rockets have been launched; 200 so far this year.
