'Empty streets and closed shops': On Israel's border with Gaza, Sderot becomes a ghost town

The Israeli city of Sderot near the border with Gaza is home to more than 30,000 people, but some 90 percent have already fled as rocket fire from Hamas rains down sporadically. A FRANCE 24 team on the ground met up with some of the residents who remain.

First three or so clips were in my street.

Is this the neighborhood they show live streamed on DD Cyprus 1 Click, Reuters, and 2R News?

Sderot was built over the ruins of the ethnic cleansed Palestinian town of Najd.

If you didn't declare war it would still be yours. It's that simple. Palestinian moans about Najd are like German moans over Königsberg. You started a war, you lost it, they took your land, simple as. Don't declare war again maybe.

So you are telling me that there are ghosts there? Omigod, that would be pretty scary if there were ghosts around there. I would leave town as well.
