For months, Sderot residents have been dodging falling missiles, never knowing when
this would happen:
A 35-year-old woman was killed Monday when one of three Kassam rockets fired at Sderot struck a car. She was the first Israeli killed in a rocket attack since November.
A 20-year-old man was moderately wounded in the rocket attack and twelve people were suffering from shock.
Islamic Jihad and the Palestinian Resistance Committee (PRC) claimed responsibility for the attack.
Streets were blocked in the area following the incident and Sderot residents ran towards the scene to try and locate loved ones. The Home Front Command was working with police to keep people away from the site.
The attack came as EU Foreign Policy Chief Javier Solana and Foreign Minister Tzipi Livni were meeting in the western Negev town....
Following the attack, Sderot residents threatened to burn the tires of the car carrying the two in protest of the lack of protection from rocket attacks, and after the press conference, residents blocked the foreign minister's path, preventing her from leaving the area.
"Tzipi Livni you're a whore! Quit! Quit!" angry Sderot residents shouted, charging at a car where they thought the foreign minister was traveling. One of the protesters was wounded in the violence.
When Livni emerged in a different car several moments later, protesters threw trash and various objects at the vehicle.
