Hamas Claims Another Life

Israel Foreign Ministry Reports:
Roni Yihye

Roni Yihye, 47, father of four and a student at Sapir College, was killed Wednesday afternoon (27 Feb) when a Kassam rocket exploded in a parking lot near the campus in southern Israel.
Over 40 Kassam rockets were fired by Palestinian terrorists from Gaza on Wednesday afternoon.

One struck a Sderot factory cafeteria shortly after some 100 workers had left the room. Four longer-range rockets landed in Ashkelon, one exploding near Barzilai hospital, where those wounded in the Kassam attacks receive treatment. A power line was torn in the attack, causing a power outage in the southern part of the city.

Hamas has claimed responsibility for Wednesday's rocket attacks.
