KIRYAT MALAHI: Three people were killed on Thursday when rockets fired from the Gaza Strip hit the southern Israeli town of Kiryat Malahi, an Israeli police spokeswoman told.
"We have three killed," spokeswoman Luba Samri told, saying four other people were also injured in a "direct hit on a house" in the town which lies 15 kilometres (nine miles) north of the Gaza Strip.
The rocket attack comes amid a vast Israeli operation against Gaza militants which began on Wednesday with the killing of a top Hamas chief.
Israeli air strikes on the Gaza Strip since the start of the operation have killed 11 Palestinians, including Ahmed Jaabari, the operational commander of Hamas's armed wing, and wounded at least 100, medical officials said.
