"Organizers say 35,000 people attended the rally in the western Negev town of Sderot Tuesday night, with protesters continuing to arrive late into the night - many by foot. Protesters then continued to the town of Ofakim, where 60,000 protesters are awaiting a rally to take place Wednesday night - followed by a planned march toward Gush Katif."
"Arab terrorists fired three Kassam rockets in an attempt to attack the crowd in Sderot. One fell in an open field between Gaza and the town and two others misfired and landed in Palestinian Authority (PA)-controlled Beit Hanoun, killing the child of a former PA officer and wounding eight other people.
Police praised the Yesha Council for maintaining order in Sderot and fulfilling promises to disperse and move to Ofakim."
"Rally organizers praised the residents and municipality of the development town of Ofakim for their hospitality Wednesday. The city’s residents are largely Sephardic immigrants from north African countries. “The spirit of our [biblical] forefather Abraham’s hospitality pervades this place,” said Rabbi Chaim Druckman."
Here`s the whole thing.
