A house in central Israel has reportedly been hit by a rocket fired from the Gaza Strip, local news outlets report, after air defense alarms went off across Jewish communities early on Monday morning.



"Following the alarm reported in the Sharon area, one launch from the Gaza Strip was identified moving toward Israeli territory," the IDF said in their latest statement in Hebrew.



Immediately after the projectile struck the house around 5am local time, emergency rescue workers rushed to the scene to help the injured, among them two infants, Channel 10 news correspondent Or Heller reported from the scene, posting a video of the aftermath. Footage shows a number of structures destroyed.
