GAZA, March 13 (Reuters) - Palestinian militant group Islamic Jihad fired rockets from Gaza into Israel on Thursday in what it described as an "initial" response to Israeli forces' killing three of its members in the West Bank.

The salvo of at least four rockets against the Israeli border town of Sderot ended a week-long suspension of such attacks by Islamic Jihad. An Israeli military spokesman said a house was damaged but there were no casualties.
