Two Grad rockets were fired Saturday night at southern Israel. One of the rockets hit a street in the town of Netivot, while the second one exploded in an open area in Beersheba.

Two houses were badly damaged in Netivot, but luckily there were no injuries in the attack. One of the residents whose house was hit escaped injury by running into the bathroom. "The entire house collapsed on me," he said later.

Several people suffered from shock. A Netivot resident who lives near the rocket landing site said after the attack, "Luckily, no one was injured. It was a real miracle." (...)
