With truce talks on hold – rocket terror continues. Five people sustained shrapnel wounds after a rocket crashed into a community in the Eshkol Regional Council on Tuesday afternoon. Emergency medical teams evacuated those wounded to the Soroka Hospital in Beersheba for treatment.
The rocket landed outside a packing factory in the community, near the residence quarters of the foreign laborers employed there. A Thai worker was lightly-to-moderately wounded and four others, one of them an Israeli, were lightly wounded.
Earlier in the day an IDF soldier was moderately wounded near the Kissufim crossing from Palestinian sniper fire during an operation to uncover explosive devices planted along the Gaza border. The soldier was also evacuated to the Soroka Hospital.
