Another Israeli was wounded in the attack.Oz, who had a 3-year-old daughter and a second child on the way, was buried in the Yarkon Cemetery in Petach Tikvah. He was the second person killed in Sderot in a surge of cross-border rocket fire over the past two weeks. The attacks have prompted Israel to engage in a retaliatory air campaign in Gaza.Prime Minister Ehud Olmert said the crackdown was open-ended.”We are not bound by any timetable,” he told his Cabinet on Sunday. “We will decide where, how and to what extent to take action.”
