ARTICLE SNIPPET: “A Qassam rocket fired from the northern Gaza Strip landed Monday morning near a private house in the southern town of Sderot, causing damage to the building.

A number of people suffered from shock, including a woman who lost her consciousness.

A kindergarten is located not far from the landing site. Sderot residents said that the fact that no one was physically hurt was a miracle, as children were making their way to the kindergarten.

The al-Quds Brigades, the Islamic Jihad’s military wing, claimed responsibility for firing the rocket. According to the Jihad, they fired a medium-range ‘Quds’ rocket.”

GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip

ARTICLE SNIPPET: “GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip - Security was beefed up at the main U.N. compound in Gaza City on Monday, with workers reinforcing the entrance gate and snipers inspecting the roof after a shadowy group of Muslim extremists attacked a U.N.-run school.

Sunday’s incident, which killed one and wounded seven, is part of Gaza’s out-of-control lawlessness that is increasingly aimed at foreigners. Most foreigners have left Gaza, and the latest attack on the U.N. was seen as a major escalation.

There was no claim of responsibility for the attack in the southern Gaza refugee camp of Rafah, but security officials said they believe “salafiyeen,” or Muslim fundamentalists, were involved. The group is believed to be behind a string of attacks on Internet cafes and music shops in recent weeks. It is not clear whether they are connected to any political party.”
