Palestinian Rocket Lands Near Ashkelon Neighborhood
[Ynet News] Shmulik Hadad - A loud explosion rocked Ashkelon's southern neighborhoods Monday morning as a Kassam rocket fired by Palestinians in Gaza landed south of the city. Several rockets have been fired at Ashkelon over the past two weeks. One of the residents living nearby said that "the explosion was so strong my house trembled. We are used to Kassam rockets, but far from here, in the industrial zone. This is the first time the rocket lands so close. It was terrifying." Security sources said that the firing of rockets at the Ashkelon area has recently become more accurate. Several rockets landed near strategic facilities in the city over the past few weeks, one of them causing damage.
