The following is a list of Palestinian rocket and mortar attacks on Israel in 2001. Almost all of the incidents were mortar attacks, as the Qassam rocket was first launched on July 10 of the year, and first used against civilian targets in October and November, when four rockets were fired on Sderot in Israel and various Gush Katif settlements in the Gaza Strip.[1][2]
In 2001, Israel maintained a military and civilian presence in the Gaza Strip. This list includes attacks on Israel proper and on Israeli civilian communities in the Gaza Strip, but not on Israeli military targets in the territory. Israel withdrew completely from the territory in 2005.
