Palestinian Arab terrorists wounded six Israeli children in an anti-tank missile attack on the Gaza Jewish community of Neve Dekalim Sunday evening.
One boy was listed in serious condition with a piece of shrapnel lodged in his head. All of the victims were age 10 and under.
The terrorists managed to score a direct hit on Neve Dekalim’s community center.
The attack took place as the children’s parents and neighbors were participating in a mass demonstration to defend their right to live in the Gaza Strip. That event saw over 130,000 people form a human chain connecting Gaza’s Katif Bloc of Jewish communities with the Temple Mount in Jerusalem.
Earlier in the evening, the “Palestinians” fired five Kassam rockets at the Gaza settlement of Nissanit. There were no injuries in that attack.
