Hamas Salvo on Gaza Perimeter Injures Worker, Damages Factory

The latest Hamas rocket salvo today (Wednesday) towards the Eshkol Regional Council on the Gaza border included one identified direct hit to a factory structure within the settlement. Firefighters are handling a fire caused by the rocket, and one worker was lightly wounded in his stomach.

MDA emergency medicine medic Aryeh Sklar said “we joined an army force which delivered a 60-year-old civilian to us who was wounded in his stomach from shrapnel while working on a forklift in the factory. The injured man told us he was wounded while trying to reach a secure area. He was fully conscious, we gave him medical treatment, and we evacuated him to the hospital in a light condition.”
