[Elder Of Ziyon - Israel News] 3-year old girl killed by a terror rocket - in Gaza

Ma'an reports:

A young Palestinian girl died and three family members suffered injuries late Tuesday in an explosion in Beit Lahiya in the northern Gaza Strip, medics said.

Ashraf al-Qidra, a spokesman for the Ministry of Health in Gaza, said four people including two children arrived at Shifa Hospital in Gaza City. The two children were in critical condition.

Residents in the area said they believed the explosion was caused by a homemade rocket.

Palestine Press Agency confirms she was killed by a rocket that fell on the family home.

In March, a 2-year old boy was killed in Gaza when a rocket being built by Hamas exploded near his home.

Also in March, a 52-year old woman was killed by a rocket falling on her Gaza home.

There have been lots of other Gaza civilians killed by rocket fire before this year as well, most of them children.

By my count there have now been 29 people killed in Gaza this year from terrorist explosions and rockets.

The Gaza terror groups believe that the many people they have killed in Gaza is a good price to pay for the wonderful feeling of seeing Israelis running to shelters.
