| Code Red in Ashkelon |
I just got out of the secured room, after a sudden CODE RED alarm was heard in Ashkelon. I was actually just entering the shower before I leave back to the center, when the siren started. I went downstairs, opened the front door, called Leonardo (which came running) and we all went into the secured room.
As of the time I’m writing this, both Ynet and Ashkelon news only reported the siren and that 2 booms were heard in the city but no details yet.
There is a problem with the regular “CODE RED” alarm they use in Sderot (a female voice saing “TZEVA ADOM! TZEVA ADOM!”) - in Ashkelon not all areas manage to hear it. So they turned into using the regular war time/memorial days siren. So now you suddenly hear a siren going up and down really strong from all the directions. I mean, as if the Grad missiles weren’t scary enough… 
Anyway, I’ll update with more information later.
Update: 2 rockets landed in open fields between Yad Mordehai kibbutz and southern Ashkelon. No one was hurt and no damages done. This time.
Reports: Ashkelon News (Hebrew), Ynet (Hebrew), YnetNews (English)
