A rocket launched from the northern Gaza Strip struck near the border community of Netiv Haasara a short while ago on October 7th, 2025, according to the military. The rocket landed in an open area, and no injuries or damage have been reported. This incident occurred on the two-year anniversary of the Hamas attacks. The military confirmed that the rocket, detected in the "enrichment lane," fell in an open area, with no reports of casualties or damage. The timing of the attack coincides with the second anniversary of the October 7th Hamas onslaught. Previous reports from earlier today indicated Israeli artillery bombardment of eastern and southern Gaza City regions between 12:06 AM and 1:09 AM UTC on October 7th, 2025. On October 6th, 2025, President Donald Trump had expressed expectations of a Gaza deal, with Hamas reportedly agreeing to key points in negotiations involving Jared Kushner and Steve Whitkoff in Egypt.
