Qassam rocket fired from Gaza hits Ashkelon
A barrage of Qassam rockets and mortar shells was fired on Saturday from the Gaza Strip into southern Israel, striking targets as far north as Ashkelon.

No injuries were reported in the attacks.

Gaza militants fired three Qassam rockets and at least ten mortar shells at the Negev region on Saturday, in addition to six Qassams that pelted area on Friday.

One rocket hit the industrial zone in southern Ashkelon, while two others struck open areas in the Sha'ar Hanegev Regional Council. A mortar shell was also fired.

1. Great resonse to Israel opening up the gates yesterday
Israel caves to international pressures, but Hamas and the many militants continue their terrorism, unabated and without reproach.

What utter stupidity.

I wonder what Israel's response will be?

Is Israel expected to treat Gazans better than Hamas? Serious question.

It's quite obvious Hamas could care less about its pawns, er civilians.
