A Kassam rocket hit a path between two houses in the southern town of Sderot on Wednesday afternoon killing two toddlers, aged two and four.
The two children, both members of the same family, were later identified as Dorit Aniso, 2, and Yuval Abebeh, 4.
Magen David Adom paramedics who arrived at the scene of the attack on Moshe Rabenu Street also treated seven people, one of whom sustained serious wounds and the other six were moderately wounded.
Paramedics also assisted 19 other people, who suffered from either light shrapnel-wounds or shock.
The wounded have been taken to the Barsilai Hospital in Ashkelon and the Soroka Hospital in Beersheba.
Social workers and counselors from the Immigration and Absorption Ministry and the Israel Police have been called for to assist the wounded, their families, and traumatized residents.
