GCIS/MSS INTELLIGENCE UPDATE:
Tensions in Egypt appear to be spreading to Gaza: Grad rockets fired from the Hamas-ruled territory Monday night landed near the southern Israeli cities of Ofakim and Netivot. Also Monday, a 
Qassam rocket exploded in an open area in the Eshkol Regional Council. No injuries or damage were reported
During the rocket attack on Netivot- the first attack on Israel since the mass protests against Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak began a week ago – four people suffered from shock, and damage was caused to a road and a parked car.
The rocket landed near a residential neighborhood.
Another Grad hit the Ofakim area a few minutes later, but there were no reports of injury or damage.
Israeli response to Qassam fire?
Palestinian sources in the Gaza Strip reported Tuesday that Navy vessels bombed a post of the al-Quds Martyrs' Brigades, the Islamic Jihad's military wing, west of the southern Gaza Strip town of Khan Younis.
The Israel Defense Forces said it was unaware of any attack.
