JERUSALEM: Two rockets fired by militants in the Hamas-run Gaza Strip on Thursday hit southern Israel as US President Barack Obama was making his first official visit to the country in four years, police said.
"One exploded in the backyard of a house in Sderot, causing damage and the second landed in a field," police spokesman Micky Rosenfeld told AFP, referring to a town very close to the Gaza border, which was visited by Obama when he last visited as a senator in 2008.
