Israel issues 'false alarm' rocket warning signal

In a sign that tensions are at a height along the Israeli-Gazan border, a rocket warning signal was sounded in southern Israel.

The Israeli military said soon after that the warning was a false alarm.

Israel holds Hamas responsible for any rockets that are sent from the Gaza Strip into Israeli territory, often conducting airstrikes in the coastal enclave in response.
