Rockets Reach Ashkelon and Ashdod, Rocking Their Worlds | The Jewish Exponent

Rockets Reach Ashkelon and Ashdod, Rocking Their Worlds | The Jewish Exponent: "Ashkelon, Israel
Another rocket warning siren wails and eight members of the Levi family, including a grandmother and a newborn baby, quickly cram into the small bedroom made of reinforced concrete that serves as the family's bomb shelter.
'Come on, come on! Get in!' they shout. Just before the heavy metal door slams shut, the family dog, Pick, quickly is whisked inside.
Standing shoulder to shoulder, they listen as the sound of the siren's wail trails off, replaced by the thud of the rocket landing. Returning to the television news a few minutes later, they see it has landed a few blocks away at a local soccer stadium.
Earlier in the day, another rocket landed much closer -- just across the street."
