Gaza rocket fragment lands on Ashdod supermarket
The fragment fell in the early evening hours, a particularly busy time, near the payment counters. Despite the large number of staff and customers at the establishment at the time, there were no injuries.
The customers followed the instructions of the Home Front Command and were in the supermarket’s shelter at the time.
Supermarket owner Avi Nissim told Ynet, "This is our Hanukkah miracle that no one was hurt. Darkness is driven away with light, so I immediately ordered the repair of the damages so that the supermarket can return to full operation as soon as possible, for the benefit and service of all our heroic customers, the residents of the south."

Human shields. ...
U.s. And the world keeps on scolding Israel for targeting innocent civilians,. Why don't Israel hit back & say to the world that Hamas is intentionally using civilians as Human shields..... For surety, Israel now should quickly Stockpiles many many weapons & ammunition's spare parts raw materials etc.. and its financials & how to circumvent the Swift payment system , to be ready for next phase of Total annihilations of Terrorists Hezbollah , or else , hezbollah would just buy some time to strengthens his forces , till he can Obliterates Israel ..... And starts to Build up cases against hezbollah.... Then Syria next.... To have Real & lasting peace with all neighbors , after these Very long decades ..... Install or place a New party or government in Gaza that are really at peace with Israel & giving up Jerusalem , so these New party can compete with Fatah Palestinians authority for controls of Palestine & have real peace with Israel ....
