Sderot resident recalls Qassam attack that cost brother his leg

By Haaretz Staff and Channel 10

Tags: Sderot, Gaza, Qassam, Israel

Haaretz.com/Channel 10 daily feature for February 12, 2008.

Rami Twito recalled on Monday the moments immediately after a Qassam rocket attack on his Sderot home on Saturday night.

At first, Twito thought that the rocket had killed his younger brother Osher, who was more seriously hurt in the attack, after which doctors were forced to amputate his leg.
