Rocket kills one, injures nine in Ashkelon

A Palestinian this morning entered a synagogue in Kiryat Sefer and stabbed a rabbi and another man with a screwdriver.

A Katyusha rocket killed one person and wounded nine in Ashkelon. The casualties are reportedly Bedouin construction workers from Rahat.

Calls by Hamas to Palestinians to take revenge on Israel are apparently finding a receptive audience. A Palestinian air conditioner technician this morning entered a synagogue in Kiryat Sefer in Upper Modi'in and stabbed a rabbi and another man with a screwdriver before escaping. A security guard in the area reportedly subsequently shot and critically wounded a Palestinian, possibly the stabber or an accomplice.
