(AP-Washington Post-Ynet News) Gaza militants fired a Grad rocket into the Israeli city of Ashkelon on Friday. The city, with a population of 122,000 located 11 miles north of Gaza, was a regular target for Palestinian militants before Israel's Gaza offensive last year. Since then, Ashkelon has largely been quiet although some rocket and mortar fire from Gaza has continued close to the border. The rocket was fired from the northern Gaza Strip town of Beit Hanoun. Eight people suffered shock. Two empty floors of an apartment building and several cars sustained damage. Many windows were shattered. Police dispatched to the rocket's landing site urged the residents to stay in their homes for fear of additional rockets. Ashkelon Mayor Benny Vaknin said that "this is a very serious incident, the worst since Operation Cast Lead (the 2009 Gaza operation). There is no doubt that such a hit inside the city is an escalation." 2010-07-30 09:45:48Full Article
