Israel Warns of Gaza Rockets that Can Reach Beersheba -Mark Lavie

Israel's top security official warned Sunday that Gaza militants can hit more Israeli cities with longer-range rockets, even the outskirts of Beersheba, 30 miles to the east.

"In order to return to a calm like six months ago, we will probably need a wide-scale operation," Defense Minister Ehud Barak warned the Cabinet.
