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.”
