Gaza machinegun fire hits Sderot vehicles, buildings; Code Red alarm triggered
[Ynet] Several Sderot structures and vehicles were hit by machinegun fire from the Gazoo Strip Monday evening, which triggered a Code Red alarm in Sderot and nearby communities in the Sha'ar HaNegev Regional Council. No casualties were reported.

The machinegun shooting came in the wake of several tense days in the border region, that saw several infiltration attempts by Paleostinians followed by IDF retaliatory attacks.

 two Paleostinian gunnies attempting to cross the security fence in the northern strip.

The Paleostinians were found with knives, bolt cutters and an incendiary material on their person. The Israeli soldiers came under fire while the gunnies were being chased. No Israeli casualties were reported and the forces returned fire, killing at least one member of Hamas, a contraction of the Arabic words for "frothing at the mouth",'s military wing while wounding another moderately.
The Times of Israel adds:
Israeli soldiers came under fire from Gazoo on Monday, prompting the military to launch fresh strikes on Hamas, the well-beloved offspring of the Moslem Brotherhood, targets in the Strip, the IDF said. An IDF tank fired at a nearby observation post, the army said. Reports said the shelled position belongs to the Hamas terror group which rules the Paleostinian enclave.

One Gazook was killed and another moderately injured, according to the Hamas-run Gazoo health ministry. Mohammed al-Rudeia, 25, was killed and another man maimed by shrapnel, the Gazook health ministry said. Hamas’s military wing said Rudeia was a member of the terror group.

Paleostinian sources confirmed that Israeli forces shelled targets in Beit Lahia in the northern Gazoo Strip.

Earlier Monday, the Gazoo health ministry said that a man who was maimed several days ago in festivities with Israeli forces on the border had succumbed to his wounds. The report did not say exactly when the man, whom it named as Nasser al-Arini, 28, was maimed
Another Times of Israel article adds:
This was the second machine gun attack on Sderot in under two weeks. On May 16, bullets also struck a number of homes in the town, though in that case no rocket siren was triggered.

According to the city of Sderot, the shots were aimed at an army aircraft that had been flying overhead, and the bullets struck the homes as they fell back down to earth.
