Since 2000 the city of Sderot has been a target of rockets fired from the Gaza Strip into Israel.
Now, not just the rockets but also Palestinian terrorists driving into Sderot.
I heard that more than 10,000 rockets have hit the city since 2001. With only 15 seconds of warning of an incoming rocket, bus stops are bomb shelters, playground animals are bomb shelters, and shop basements are bomb shelters. Sderot is called, the bomb shelter capital of the world.

Sderot is located less than a mile from Gaza and is notable for having been a major target of Qassam rocket attacks from the Gaza Strip. The Israeli government built concrete shelters all over the town and installed a "Red Color" (צבע אדום) alarm system to warn citizens of impending rocket attacks. Citizens are given 7–15 seconds to reach shelter after the sound of the alarm.
