The National Review’s Deroy Murdock documents the damage done by ball bearings packed into Katyusha rockets, arguing they should be classified as weapons of mass destruction, writing:
“If you wanted to bring down a building, you would make a weapon with a heavier blast,” Dr. Eran Tal-Or, Surgical Emergency Room director at Haifa’s Ramban Hospital, told Human Rights Watch. “You wouldn’t bother with the balls inside that don’t do much harm to buildings, just to people.”
