A "Quds" medium range rocket fired from the northern Gaza Strip landed Monday morning near a private house in the southern town of Sderot, causing damage but no injuries. Several people suffered from shock, and one woman who lost consciousness.
A kindergarten is located near the landing site, and Sderot residents said that the rocket landed as children were arriving there.
The al-Quds Brigades of the Islamic Jihad claimed responsibility for the attack.
The terror group said that the rocket fire was in response to Israel's operations in the West Bank.
Haim Buskila, whose sister's house was hit by the rocket, told YnetNews, "I live close by and we heard the explosion. I ran quickly to see if everything was okay at my sister's home. Although there were no injuries, she is suffering from heavy mental damage and so are we. We have no fortified rooms and we feel like rabbits in a cave ? every time you take your head out you are afraid to get hurt."
According to Buskila, "Our life is on the stake, while the leaders are fighting whether to remain in offer or not. Which other country would allow its city to be bombed like this? Are we no longer important? Where is the solidarity? Where is the State? People are already talking about an underground organization which will rise and bomb them back. Gaza should be erased. If they are crazy, we shall also act crazy." |
