This just in from Ynetnews report bulletin that:

"The army official said the rocket that struck the school in Beersheba was manufactured in China, is heavier than the Qassam and can "potentially cause much greater damage." He said the rocket contains metal pallets that can spread out across a radius of up to 100 meters (about 328 feet) from the point of impact."

The way the bombs can spread is what scares me the most, as then the primary target is no longer the only target, and who knows what could be hit by pieces of the bomb...

It appears to work more like a cluster bomb. "collateral" damage appears to be the objective.

The international community needs to stop this happening again.

Made in Russia, made in China, made in USA.  All the same.  Gun runners make $$$ off the trade.
