E-mail from Naomi in Sderot
As many of you know Naomi is the mother of three who came to Wales with her children for rest-bite from the rockets that hit Sderot every day. Last week a 47 yr old man and father of four was killed in Sderot and the town continues to be under fire. The below is an e-mail I received from Naomi today which gives you an idea of what daily family life is like Sderot. Naomi was praying for no rockets to be fired but I have spoken to her by telephone a few moments ago and already 20 Kassams have landed on Sderot today.
hi mike i saw a call from abroad on thursday sorry i couldnt answer a few minuts earlier a kassam fell not far from me, i was driving my car when the sirens went on i stoped the car and then i saw infront of me a young woman trying to pool out from the baby seat a baby i run to her and the rocket fell not far from us nothing happend but i couldnt stop shaking and for a few moments i couldnt breath a terrible head ace and bad noise in my ears. my parents house an hour later got dammaged the windows exploded it was a miracle no one was home.
mike- its war and very bad, ashkelon is under attack. katyusha rockets hit is worse then a kassam , do you remmemer? its exactly like i expected -sderot is tired hurt and almost empty ,now its ashkelon and next ashdod.
our kibutz is like a combat zone soldiers helicopters kassams fall all over the nights are horor show you see the sky lit up from the bombs and the shooting - no one gets an hour of good night sleep,
today im celebrating dorons birthday i postpone it for a few days and almost canceled it but the show must go on and a birthday must be cellebrated!
hope muhamad at gaza will give us an hour break to make doron happy, it will be the best gift to her.
the children ask about you all the time, send our love to shirley grace and sam.
love naomi
