Tisha B'av Sucks

Just in case you were wondering if worse things happen on Tisha B'av than on other days:

Haaretz reports:

A barrage of Hezbollah rockets slammed into northern Israel on Thursday, killing at least seven people. Three people were killed when a rocket crashed directly into a house near the northern town of Tarhisha, and another four were killed when a rocket exploded near their vehicle in Acre.

Three people were wounded in the strike on Acre, and another four were wounded when rockets hit the town of Horfesh. At least three more people were wounded in Kiryat Shmona and Tiberias.

Also Thursday, two Israel Defense Forces soldiers were killed and two others were seriously wounded Thursday in heavy fighting with Hezbollah guerillas in south Lebanon.
Seven civilians killed - the most in one day in this current war. And three soldiers. Grrrr
