Three Kassam rockets fire at Sderot (UPDATE)
By THE JERUSALEM POST INTERNET STAFF

Palestinians in the Gaza Strip on Sunday fired three Kassam rockets at the nearby Israeli town of Sderot.

Six people were treated for shock as the rockets exploded in an open field near the town.

The six were taken to the Barzilai Hospital in Ashkelon for treatment.

IDF sappers have found the remains of one of the rockets and were busy defusing it.

Palestinians have repeatedly fired rockets at Sderot and nearby settlement after IDF raids on the Gaza Strip.

Earlier in the day IDF troops raided Gaza killing 8 people and arresting a founder of Hamas.
