Ambulance service says 27 injured so far from rocket attacks

The Magen David Adom ambulance service says it has treated 28 people injured by attacks from the Gaza Strip, including one man who was pronounced dead.

According to the emergency service, three people sustained serious injuries, including a soldier who was hit in an anti-tank missile attack near the Gaza border. The other two severely wounded people were a woman in her 60s and another woman in her 40s who were injured in rocket attacks in the city of Ashkelon.

Another 24 people were lightly wounded from shrapnel, smoke inhalation and accidents while running to bomb shelters, MDA says.

In addition, some 27 people were treated for panic attacks brought on by rocket and mortar strikes.
