(Corrects name of kibbutz to Nir Oz) JERUSALEM, June 5 (Reuters) - An Israeli was critically wounded and two others were hurt when a rocket hit a kibbutz near the border with the Hamas-controlled Gaza Strip, Israel's ambulance service said on Thursday. The rocket hit a factory at the Nir Oz kibbutz in southern Israel, police said. Palestinian militants in Gaza regularly launch rockets at Israel. The salvoes rarely cause death or injury but sow panic in border towns. Israel has tightened its blockade on the Gaza Strip and often conducts raids into the territory which it says are aimed at curbing the attacks. (Reporting by Joseph Nasr; Editing by Elizabeth Piper)
