Operation "Cast Lead"
Weekly Update - November 06, 2008
Significant terror attacks: This week there was a sharp increase in the number of high trajectory weapon attacks (rockets/mortars) from the Gaza Strip into Israel, including towards Ashkelon. This was preceded by an ISA-IDF operation on the evening between November 4th and 5th, which exposed a tunnel ready for use, which was intended for the purpose of a large terror attack within Israel. This Israeli activity was undertaken in order to deal with an impending and urgent threat, and thus was not a rupture of the “Lull.” Another significant attack this week was the stabbing of a member of the Border Police (November 5) in Bethlehem.
 
Individuals wounded in terror attacks:
7 Israelis were wounded this week in terror attacks:
5 suffered from shock as a result of rocket fire towards Ashkelon (Nov 5) 1 member of the Border Police was moderately wounded in a stabbing attack in Bethlehem (see above) 1 policeman was lightly wounded by a Molotov cocktail in Jerusalem (Nov 6) **4 IDF soldiers wounded during the conflict surrounding the destruction of the tunnel in Gaza are not included in these numbers.

Major trends:
In the Gaza Strip – sharp increase this week in rocket and mortar firing toward Israel.
Total: 28 attacks, in contrast to 1 attack (explosives) last week.
Prior to the developments following the destruction of the tunnel in the Gaza Strip, 2 incidents of breaking the “Lull” were recorded (rocket and mortar fire), in contrast to one such incident last week. Since the beginning of the “Lull” (June 19), there have been 50 disruptions, most of the
type of high-trajectory weapon fire (rockets/mortars), along with a number of incidents of setting explosives.
In Judea and Samaria – a similar number of attacks characterized by violent “popular resistance”: this week, 9 Molotov cocktails were thrown, which is equal to last week. One stabbing attack in ethlehem.
