TEL AVIV, Israel (KOLO) -Nevada U.S. Sen. Jacky Rosen was one of a bipartisan group of senators visiting Israel who had to seek shelter Sunday during a rocket attack.

U.S. Sen. Chuck Schumer of New York announced that the senators had to seek shelter while in Tel Aviv.

Rosen’s office confirmed Rosen was in the group. Among other senators who visited were Mitt Romney of Utah, Bill Cassidy of Louisiana and Mark Kelly of Arizona.
