Israeli Defence Minister Moshe Ya'alon

Israeli Defense Minister Moshe Ya'alon ordered the closure of Israel's two border crossings to the Gaza Strip - Kerem Shalom and Erez - until further notice. Only humanitarian cases will be allowed through in the wake of a rocket shelling from Gaza Strip, Voice of Israel Radio reported.

One rocket was fired from Gaza at approximately 9:40 pm Saturday night, landing in an open area near Ashkelon. No injuries or damage were reported.

Yesh Atid MK Haim Yellin, the former head of the Eshkol Regional Council which is constantly under rocket threat, said following the rocket strike, "Operation Protective Edge isn't over."
