Israel-Gaza strikes despite \\\'truce\\\'
Friday, 14 March 2014
Rocket and air strikes have continued between Gaza militants and Israel despite Palestinian claims a truce had been restored. Several rockets hit Israeli soil on Thursday and Israel's military said it had launched retaliatory air strikes. Palestinian militant group Islamic Jihad earlier said a deal had been made to resume a 2012 ceasefire agreement. Israel did not confirm this. The Israel Defence Forces (IDF) said about 60 rockets hit Israel on Wednesday, according to BBC.
