Palestinian militants in the Gaza Strip on Friday fired a Qassam rocket at the western Negev, which landed in an open field near a local kibbutz. There were no injuries or damages reported in the incident.

Three rockets were fired at Israel on Thursday, two of which landed in an open field south of Ashkelon. A third rocket landed in an open area near the western Negev town of Sderot. There were no injuries or damages in any of the attacks.

President Moshe Katsav met with victims of Qassam attacks and Gush Katif evacuees on a visit to Ashkelon on Thursday. He also toured the strategic facilities in the city which have come under rocket attacks in recent days.

The president also met with the family of Sderot resident Adir Bassad, 14, who was critically wounded in a rocket attack on the city on Tuesday. The teen's mother said her son's condition had improved and that he had begun speaking again Thursday.

Firing rocket bombs at random civilian targets is about as low as it gets.

Peace.
