Ashkelon Neighbors Congregate After Missile Strike

Wednesday, December 31, 2008
As Israel completed its fifth day of air strikes against Hamas targets in the Gaza Strip, Chabad-Lubavitch emissaries in Israeli cities terrorized by Palestinian-fired rockets counseled frightened residents and soldiers. In the coastal city of Ashkelon, not far from the Gazan border, Rabbi Menachem Lieberman and his staff handed out miniature books of Psalms to security forces and citizens who had gathered at the site where a rocket struck on Wednesday.
Rabbi Menachem Lieberman, director of Chabad-Lubavitch of Ashkelon, meets with rattled residents after a rocket attack. According to Lieberman, residents are dealing with a host of emotions, from hysteria to relief at emerging unscathed.
