More Gaza Rockets Hit Israel
Palestinians fired two advanced Kassam rockets probably Grad-style that were made in iran in pieces and reassembled in Gaza at Ashkelon on Saturday Feb 28 morning, in an attack that saw one projectile tear through an empty school, destroy classrooms, and spray shrapnel in all directions. The two rockets, which were retrieved and analyzed by police sappers, had a 170-mm. diameter, which allowed for a greater amount of explosives to be packed inside. Police on Saturday said 65 rockets and mortar shells have hit the South since the end of Operation Cast Lead on January 18, leading to four light injuries. Posted by: mhw 2009-03-01 |
