GAZA: ISRAELI AID AND HAMAS ATTACKS
(Communicated by the Foreign Ministry Spokesman)
Monday, May 05, 2008

In the past 24 hours, there were two intensive barrages of Kassam rocket
attacks aimed at Sderot and the western Negev communities. Two rockets
landed in Sderot, hitting a cemetery and damaging headstones while one hit a
supermarket, causing structural damage. There were five shock victims. Today
(Monday), 5.5.08, there were three hits in Sderot, including one that landed
in agricultural lands near Sapir College.

Also today, 75 humanitarian aid trucks carrying vaccines, electric wires,
hygiene and food products, and other materials were transferred to the Gaza
Strip via the Sufa crossing point.

Israel is facilitating the entry of humanitarian aid into the Gaza Strip
while at the same time it is being attacked from that territory. Israel
holds Hamas fully responsible for these attacks and their consequences.
