More Rockets Fired into Israel

I could probably devote this blog just to the rocket attacks into Israel.


SDEROT, Israel (Reuters) - Two Israelis, one an eight-year-old boy, were seriously wounded by Palestinian rockets fired into southern Israel on Saturday, medical workers and police said.

Medical workers said the two were brothers who were injured by a rocket that landed in the centre of the Israeli town of Sderot, located about 5 km from the Hamas-controlled Gaza Strip.

"The child was walking in the street when the rocket fell," said police spokesman Micky Rosenfeld.

Hamas Islamists, who seized the Gaza Strip in June, claimed responsibility for the rocket fire.
