At least three people killed Thursday morning when a Grad rocket hit an apartment building in Kiryat Malachi. Five other people were injured in the attack, with three in serious to critical condition. Rescue teams hurried to the scene to treat the injured, who were taken for treatment in a Beersheva hospital. Among the injured was a two year old baby. Sources said that the buiding hit by the rocket was in the Chabad neighborhood of the city.
Initial reports said that one person had been killed, with at least five injured, three of them critically. Israel Radio said that lifesaving teams had attempted to revive the critically injured, but declared two of them dead when the attempts failed. The five were among a large group that had taken refuge in an old building that suffered a direct hit from a Grad rocket. Rescue teams were trying to remove victims of the attack from the rubble, and were preparing for the possibility of more casualties, Magen David Adom officials said.
Grad rockets fired from Gaza to Israel were also loaded with phosphorus.

Hamas warn Israel of ‘opening hell’ after military chief is killed
Opening hell? Letting tons of Muslims in to anywhere, that is opening hell. Fighting back against relentless onslaughts? thats more like purgatory. The wording of this bit of yellow journalism is interesting as well. It places the blame for hostilities squarely on Israel for the strike on a military target while making it look like Israel is lying about the hundreds of rockets raining down on it in the past few days. Of course, the hundreds of videos of it doesn’t seem to matter. Even the sub-headline make its look that way. The all out war started when Gaza started launching missiles at anything they could of course.

Daily Record UK:
MILITARY boss Ahmed al-Jabari was killed in a missile strike prompting fears of an all-out war between Israel and Palestine.
FEARS of an all-out war between Israel and Palestine grew last night after a Hamas military chief was killed in a missile strike.
Ahmed al-Jabari died in his car with an aide in the blitz on Gaza.
Israeli forces insisted they were responding to a string of rocket attacks from across the border.
Security chiefs claim the 46-year-old leader of the Islamist group was behind all terror acts against Israel from Gaza over the past decade.
But Hamas warned: “Israel has opened the doors of Hell. The occupation has committed a dangerous crime and exceeded all red lines.
