Southerners woke up to another day of rocket attacks Friday as Palestinian terrorists fired five Kassams at western Negev neighborhoods.
The rockets landed in the Sderot, Eshkol and Sha'ar Hanegev regions. No one was wounded and no damage was reported.
One of the Kassams landed near a kibbutz reservoir, while a second hit the fence surrounding another western Negev kibbutz. The other rockets hit open areas.
The Islamic Jihad's armed wing claimed responsibility for the attacks.
Meanwhile, the Ashkelon Parents Association decided to hold a partial strike on Friday morning in protest of, what they called, the government's failure in dealing with the renewed rocket-fire.
Parents sent their children to the city's schools at the later time of 10 a.m.
Some 60 rockets and mortar shells have been fired at Israel since Tuesday, when IDF special forces raided a structure 250 meters from the Kissufim border, crossing in Gazan territory, which housed the entrance to a tunnel the army said was intended to enable Hamas to kidnap IDF troops in the immediate future.
