Jerusalem:

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Monday he would cut short his US visit and return home after a rocket fired from the Gaza Strip hit Tel Aviv wounding five people.

"I have decided, due to the security incidents, to cut short my visit to the United States. I will meet President (Donald) Trump in a few hours and just after that I will return to Israel to lead closely the operations," Netanyahu said in a video released by his office.
