Militants in Gaza fired seven rockets into Israel early Thursday morning as the nation's Jewish population began celebrating Passover.
The Israeli military says all seven rockets exploded in midair. Tensions remain high in the country as the Muslim holy month of Ramadan continues, while the Jewish Passover began Wednesday. Israeli forces have tracked rocket barrages from Gaza throughout the week, though few have escaped the country's air defenses.
Tense protests have taken place at the Al-Aqsa Mosque, where Muslims flock throughout Ramadan. The mosque resides on the foundations of the Jewish temple mount, the holiest site in Judaism.
While Israeli authorities allow free access to the mosque, many Muslim visitors have attempted to stay overnight, something only allowed for in the final week of Ramadan.
