A Kassam rocket was launched into Israel from the Gaza Strip Tuesday evening, in violation of the four-month-old cease-fire between Israel and Hamas.
The rocket fell in an open area north of the Strip. There were no casualties and no damage.
Following the attack, Defense Minister Ehud Barak instructed security forces to keep the crossings to the Gaza Strip closed on Wednesday, as has been routinely done in the past.
Last Saturday, regional councils around the Gaza Strip were ordered to raise their level of alert out of fear that Kassam rocket fire would resume from Gaza.
Kassam attacks have been sporadic since the cease-fire's inception in June.
