Earlier Sunday, three Kassams from Gaza struck near the southern Israeli city of Sderot. There were two people lightly injured in those attacks.

In an unusual step, Hamas fingered a Salafi group operating in Gaza for Sunday morning’s rocket attacks.

Known as Jamiat ul-Mujahedin Bayt al-Maqdis, the al-Qaeda-affiliated Salafi group claimed responsibility for the three rockets. It also reportedly criticized Hamas for clamping down on Islamic extremists in Gaza, in the wake of the August 5 Egyptian-Israeli border attack that left 16 Egyptian soldiers dead.
