Red Alert Siren Sounds in Gaza Border Communities

The Jerusalem Post reports: A rocket alert siren sounded in the Eshkol Regional Council on the border with the Gaza Strip on Thursday.

The IDF stated that no rockets were known to have fallen in Israeli territory.

A military source said that the possibility was being checked that interior fire within Egypt may have set off the rocket alert siren. No injuries or damage were initially reported.

The siren came some two weeks after the IDF announced that it had located a tunnel infiltrating into Israeli territory from the Gaza Strip.
