Palestinians Fire Missile at Israeli Town
Monday June 28, 2004 7:01 AM
JERUSALEM (AP) - Palestinian militants fired two missiles at the Negev Desert town of Sderot on Monday - just a mile from Prime Minister Ariel Sharon's private ranch - wounding several people, rescue workers said.
The homemade missiles were fired just hours after militants carried out a well-planned operation in the Gaza Strip, blowing up an outpost and killing one soldier. A short while later, Israel fired missiles at two metal workshops in the coastal area.
The improvised Qassam rockets landed on a road not far from a kindergarten, rescue workers said. It was not immediately clear how many people were wounded or what condition they were in. Israel Radio said a few people had been wounded by shrapnel, while others were suffering from trauma.
Sderot, located just a few miles, from the Gaza border, is often a target of militant rockets.

Two Dead in Palestinian Rocket Attack in Israel
JERUSALEM (*******) - Palestinian rockets fired from the Gaza Strip (news - web sites) slammed into a town in southern Israel on Monday, killing at least two people, Israeli security sources said.
The attack on Sderot was launched several hours after Palestinian militants tunneled under an Israeli army post in the Gaza Strip and blew it up in a large explosion that killed one soldier and wounded five.
The security sources said that in addition to the two dead, several other people were wounded in the town.
Military sources said two rockets hit Sderot, which borders the Gaza Strip and has been a frequent target of such attacks.
