Palestinian Rockets Slam into Beersheba, Six Israelis Wounded

[Jerusalem Post] Yaakov Lappin - Despite his mother's best efforts to protect him with her body, seven-year-old Uriel Elazarov was seriously wounded in Beersheba on Thursday when shrapnel from a Grad rocket penetrated his skull. When the warning sirens sounded, Uriel and his mother, Angela, an emergency room nurse, exited their vehicle and laid on the ground, as instructed by the Home Front Command. The Grad exploded nearby, sending shrapnel and metal balls in every direction. A 43-year-old woman was seriously wounded by the rocket, and four other people also sustained wounds. An hour later, the air force destroyed the rocket launchers used in the attack. Some 25 rockets were fired at Israel on Thursday.
