Terrorism

Rockets wound 3 in Sderot

At least three Israelis were wounded Monday evening when a Kassam rocket fired by Arabs in the Gaza Strip hit a car in the Negev town of Sderot.

A woman was seriously hurt, a man was moderately wounded and a third person suffered light injuries.

More than 10 Kassam rockets were fired from Gaza Monday after 13 had rained down on Sunday.

Extra Israeli emergency personnel have been deployed in Sderot amid expectations of more attacks and casualties.

The Olmert government has instructed the IDF to do what it can to reduce the number of rocket attacks.

Prime Minister Olmert, who last year was unable to stop Hizb’allah’s missile strikes in northern Israel, and who has been accused of failing to effectively prosecute that war, nonetheless remains unwilling to authorize the military to crush the terrorists.
