Strip's terrorists fire two Grad rockets at Beersheba, 11 Qassam rockets at western Negev; none injured. IAF strikes Gaza targets; Palestinians report of 35 casualtiesWhile it's lucky nobody was injured in this particular attack, it will happen if the Hamas and Islamic Jihad are allowed to continue their domination of Gaza. Sooner or later, the army is going to have to launch a ground strike upon those jihadists.
