Mortar shells fired at Israel land in Gaza, injure 6 Palestinians
Six mortar shells were fired at Israel from the Gaza Strip on Wednesday, but landed in Palestinian territory and injured six Gazans, according to Palestinian sources.

The mortar shells were aimed toward the Eshkol region of the western Negev, but landed in on Palestinian land, one of them hitting a house in the northern Gaza Strip town of Beit Hanoun, sending shrapnel flying and lighting a small fire inside.

Six Palestinians were injured, one of them seriously, Gaza emergency services chief Mo'aweya Hassanein said.

The shells were fired just two days after the Islamic Jihad in Gaza announced that it would cease firing rockets into Israel.

1. Tsk. Tsk.
Most here at DU would have been fine if they had landed in Israel and injured Israelis.

Well, I guess they had them left over and thought, why let them go to waste? I wonder if the injured are feeling all warm and fuzzy toward the ones who did the firing? Because that is the way Israelis are expected to feel, isn't it? Full of love and forgiveness and eager to open their borders?

Yeah.
