Gaza Missile Strikes School, Barely Misses Israeli Students
(Times of Israel) Most students had already left the Lev Ladaat hesder yeshiva religious school in Sderot for the weekend, but three people were sitting down to study just before 9 p.m. on Thursday when a missile slammed into a wall just steps away, sending concrete and glass flying but leaving them unharmed. Eyewitnesses said had the rocket hit a few minutes earlier, when the main study hall was filled with students, or a few meters from where it did, it could have been a very different story. Moreover, there was no explosion from a warhead, which could have caused much larger devastation. A Chabad Lubavitch synagogue adjacent to the school was holding a weekly Bible study session at the time.
