A rocket fired by Gaza-based Palestinian terrorists Wednesday morning hit a high school in Israel's southern Negev region just minutes before students were scheduled to arrive. A woman who was already at the school was treated for shock.

A second rocket landed in a nearby open field.

A day earlier, an Israeli Bedouin man was lightly wounded by shrapnel after a Palestinian rocket slammed into a factory in the same area.

The Islamic Jihad terrorist organization claimed credit for both attacks.
