Exactly five months since the last Katyusha rocket attack on Beisan, this new immigrants’ township was again subjected to another attack early this morning. Several rockets, fired in the direction of the township from across the Jordan River, exploded in several places, including near the religious Golani school. They caused only slight damage and no casualties. A single Katyusha rocket was also fired at Hamadiyen settlement, north of Beisan, early this morning. There were no casualties. Israeli forces in the area returned the fire.
