Palestinian Rocket Severely Injures Two Israeli Teens in Sderot
[Ynet News] Shmulik Hadad - Palestinians in Gaza fired a rocket at Israel Tuesday evening that wounded two teenagers in Sderot. Adir Basad, 14, sustained critical wounds and was rushed into surgery. Matan Cohen, 14, was also severely injured. A security officer who saw the two youths said, "The rocket landed really close to them, and there was a puddle of blood beneath them." Several houses and cars in the area were damaged. Islamic Jihad claimed responsibility. Matan's uncle, Nir Ohanan, said that "this is the third time Matan escapes death by a Kassam rocket. The first time the rocket landed in their home and almost completely destroyed the house, the second time the rocket landed right next to him, and this time the rocket hit him." Palestinians have fired eight rockets at Israel since Tuesday morning.
