Kassam rockets strike Sderot - May 2007

20 May 2007
Sderot has come under attack since Tuesday night (May 15), with a barrage of over 100 Kassam rockets landing in the town and surrounding area. Two women were seriously wounded by direct hits on their homes, and many were treated for injuries and shock. Other rockets hit a high school near Sapir College and a synagogue (May 17). Hamas has openly claimed responsibility for the ongoing attack.
