Hamas proxy claims to be able to hit Ashdod
The 'People's Resistance Committee,' the Hamas proxy that kidnapped IDF soldier Gilad Shalit in June 2006, claims to have used the 'truce' to develop a rocket with the capability to hit Ashdod and other points up to 25 kilometers from the Gaza Strip. Ashdod is the home of Israel's second largest port and has a population of 200,000 (compare with Ashkelon's - which has already been hit - 120,000).
