[Jerusalem Post] Yaakov Lappin - Palestinians in Gaza fired two Grad rockets Wednesday that slammed into residential neighborhoods in Ashkelon. One rocket landed at a busy intersection, wounding four people. By Wednesday evening, well over 60 rockets had been fired from Gaza. Nine rockets were fired at Ofakim, three at Netivot, three at Sderot, one at Ashdod, one at Kiryat Malachi, and 14 landed in the western Negev region. Twenty people suffered shock throughout the region. The relatively low number of wounded was largely due to the residents' compliance with Home Front Command instructions.
