Palestinian militants have attempted to hit Israel’s largest city, Tel Aviv, with missiles fired from the Gaza Strip.
An Israeli military spokesman said two missiles had been launched toward the Tel Aviv area but neither had hit it.
Three Israelis were killed by rockets from Gaza earlier, while 15 Palestinians have been killed in two days of Israeli attacks on Gaza.
