(JNS) Daniel Wolf, whose home was hit by a long-range missile from Gaza this week, said although his family home was destroyed in the attack, “a lot of miracles happened” that ultimately spared the family from death.

“When I heard the siren, I ran and grabbed my oldest daughter, and then I got my wife and my younger daughter and dashed them to the shelter,” he said.

Wolf said his father and sister were standing in the front yard when the rocket hit, and miraculously were not seriously injured. His mother and daughters, who were injured, are expected to make a full recovery. Two family dogs were killed.

Daniel said that normally he would have been in bed. However, the night before the attack he happened to have fallen asleep on the couch, a room with better acoustics than his bedroom, which enabled him to hear the siren.

Daniel’s mother, Susan, didn’t make it to the safe room in time and suffered the most serious injuries in the family.
