U tom autobusu se malo ranije vozilo 50 vojnika . Najmanje 29 Izraelaca je ranjeno šrapnelima i staklom i mnogo ih je traumatizirano.
Rakete su pogodile domove u Netivot, Siderot i Ashkelon - pogodile su supermarket, plinsku stanicu i zgradu s apartmanima, te ranilo nekoliko ljudi.
Ipak se oko 60 raketa presrelo sa "Iron Dome", a sirene su upozorile ljude sve do Ein Gedi blizu Mrtvog mora. IDF traži od stanovništva na granici s Gazom da ostane u zaklonima, a one u Negevu i Beershebi da ostanu u blizini zaklona.
