Terrorists fire 16 rockets at Israel

Palestinian terrorists continued to attack Israeli civilian areas on Wednesday, firing 16 projectiles by late afternoon, including a phosphorous mortar shell that hit the Eshkol region.In the latest attack, a Kassam hit an open area near a kibbutz in the Sdot Negev region. Earlier, two Grad rockets hit the Shfela region, in the central district, while Ashdod, Ashkelon, Sderot and Beersheba were also hit. No one was wounded and no damage was reported in the attacks.Although dozens of Grad-type rockets have plagued the cities during the conflict, defense officials have said that the Islamic group was nearing the end of its supply. Beersheba and the Shfela region are two of the farthest points that Hamas has succeeded in hitting since the start of Operation Cast Lead, nearly two and a half weeks ago.Also on Wednesday, rockets fired in the direction of Jerusalem caused confusion when they set off air-raid sirens throughout the city.Police spokesman Shmuel Ben-Ruby said that there were no incidents reported as a result of the sirens.The rockets landed far-short of their intended target.
