UPDATED: Ceasefire Collapses, Israeli Airstrikes Resume in Gaza
Picture
No responsibility claimed for alleged Gaza rocketfire

Renewed Israeli airstrikes have injured dozens of Palestinians, including three children, on Tuesday, in the Gaza Strip, and killed at least three more, according to the Ministry of Health.

Ashraf al-Qidra, of the Ministry, said that two children were moderately wounded in an Israeli airstrike on the al-Matar area, east of Rafah. Another three were injured in northern Gaza.

Ma'an reported that three Palestinians were injured in central Gaza, while 10 more were injured in airstrikes north of Gaza City.

Over 30 sites in the Strip were targeted by Israeli forces, Tuesday evening, including agricultural lands in Beit Lahiya, al-Zaytoun, al-Maghazi, Deir al-Balah, Al-Qarara, Khuza, eastern Rafah and eastern Shujaiyya.

Nine days of temproary ceasefire have now come to an untimely end, as Israeli officials claim that three rockets struck southern Israel from Gaza, just hours before the truce's midnight expiration.

Neither confirmation of Israel's story or claims of responsibility have come from Palestinian resistance, as with the previous resumptions of the conflict.

See: 08/08/14 Truce Ends, Rockets Fired at Israel

"We don't have any information about firing rockets from Gaza. The Israeli raids are intended to sabotage the negotiations in Cairo," Hamas spokesman Sami Abu Zuhri told AFP.

The last time Israeli airstrikes resumed at the end of a ceasefire, the Israeli military made similar allegations of Gaza rocket attacks, with no responsibility being claimed from opposing factions. Rather, Israeli claims were denied form the start.

The alleged rocket fire from Gaza reportedly fell near Beersheba, southern Israel, according to the Palestinian News Network (PNN).

Resident Omar Mohammad Jarghoun, died at the Gaza European Hospital in Khan Younis, southern Gaza, of wounds suffered 2 weeks previously,

At least 10 Palestinians were injured in a shelling, by Israelis, of the Sheikh Radwan neighborhood in Gaza City.

The Ministry of Health in Gaza says that an as of yet unidentified girl child was also killed in the Sheikh Radwan shelling. At least 15 were injured.

WAFA Palestinian News & Info Agency has additionally reported that three Palestinians were injured in an Israeli shelling of Beit Lahia, in the northern part of the Gaza Strip.

The three include a woman and an infant, while 45 total have been injured, mostly children and women. They were moved to the Shifa Medical center, with four of the wounded having suffered serious injuries.

Ma'an additionally reports that Abdullah Abed-Rabbo, age 20, died at a Turkish Hospital of wounds suffered previously during the Israeli bombardment on Gaza.

Two children have also been injured in an Israeli bombardment of the "Airport Area" east of Rafah, in the southern part of the Gaza Strip.

Hamas armed wing says fires rockets at Israel, including Tel Aviv

The military wing of Hamas said it pounded Israel with rocket fire on Tuesday, hitting Tel Aviv and the southern city of Beersheva.

The Israeli military confirmed hits in both places but there were no reported casualties.

"A rocket hit an open area in the Tel Aviv metropolitan area," a statement said.

Code Red sirens heard in Beit Shemesh near Jerusalem

Code Red sirens were heard in Beit Shemesh near Jerusalem late Tuesday ahead of the expiration of a ceasefire agreement in Gaza, Israeli officials said.

More rocket attacks were reported in Tel Aviv and throughout central and southern Israel.
US blames Hamas for Gaza truce collapse

The United States blamed rocket fire from Gaza for a breakdown in indirect talks between Israel and Palestinian authorities on a durable ceasefire Tuesday, and said Hamas bore responsibility.

"Hamas has security responsibility for Gaza ... Rocket fire came from Gaza," State Department spokeswoman Marie Harf said, blaming the Palestinian Islamist group for renewed fighting.

Hamas holds Israel responsible for talks faltering

Hamas Movement held Israel fully responsible for faltering truce talks in Cairo due to its continued prevarication in reaching a long-term ceasefire agreement. In a brief statement issued on Tuesday evening, spokesman for the Movement Sami Abu Zuhri called on Israel to stop wasting chances for a truce agreement.

“We are ready for all the possibilities and developments”, he added.

A state of anticipation has prevailed as the negotiations between Israelis and Palestinians are still ongoing under Egyptian auspices. No progress has been witnessed so far.

In their turn, the Mujahedeen and Ahrar movements held Israel responsible for obstructing reaching a truce agreement.

In a press release issued on Tuesday, Mujahedeen movement said that Israel has no other choice but to meet Palestinian demands.

For its part, the Ahrar movement confirmed that Palestinian resistance would not keep silent for long, saying that Israeli manipulation of time factor would not succeed in wasting resistance’s achievements.

The Egyptian Foreign Ministry asked on Monday for a 24-hour extension of Gaza ceasefire for the fourth time in a row to allow more room for further negotiations.
Witnesses: Thousands flee for cover as Israel raids Gaza

Thousands of Palestinians fled their homes in neighborhoods of eastern Gaza City on Tuesday, carrying bags of clothes, pillows and mattresses after renewed Israeli airstrikes, witnesses said.

An AFP reporter saw hundreds of Palestinians streaming out of Shejaiya, one of the areas worst affected by more than a month of fighting between Israel and Hamas.

Thousands more were leaving the areas of Zeitun and Shaaf, alarmed by a series of explosions, and heading towards shelters in UN schools, the witnesses said.
3 Palestinians killed in Israeli airstrikes on Gaza City

Three Palestinians were killed and at least 40 injured in Israeli airstrikes on the Gaza Strip on Tuesday, Gaza medical officials said.

A 3-year-old girl and an unidentified woman were killed in an airstrike which targeted the al-Dalou family home in Gaza City's Sheikh Radwan neighborhood.

Ambulance crews and medics were searching for bodies among the rubble of the three-story home, which was reportedly hit by five missiles.

Twelve Palestinians were killed in 2012 when Israel targeted the same home during a military offensive on Gaza. The victims of that attack spanned four generations, from a 1-year-old to an 83-year-old.

At least 40 other Palestinians were injured in Israeli airstrikes across the besieged enclave.

Warplanes targeted over 30 sites including agricultural lands in Beit Lahiya, al-Zaytoun, al-Maghazi, Deir al-Balah, Al-Qarara, Khuza, eastern Rafah and eastern Shujaiyya.

Israel launched airstrikes on Gaza after three rockets landed near Beersheba earlier in the day.

Hamas spokesman Sami Abu Zuhri denied the movement had fired rockets over the border Tuesday, accusing Israel of trying to sabotage truce talks in Cairo.

"We don't have any information about firing rockets from Gaza. The Israeli raids are intended to sabotage the negotiations in Cairo," he told AFP.

The Palestinians say agreement over a long-term arrangement in Gaza has been delayed by Israeli foot-dragging over key issues. Video

Israeli airstrikes injured 18 Palestinians, including two children, in the Gaza Strip on Tuesday, a health ministry official said, as ceasefire talks collapsed.

Ashraf al-Qidra said two children were moderately wounded in an airstrike on the al-Matar area east of Rafah. Another three Palestinians were injured in the northern Gaza Strip.

Three Palestinians were injured in central Gaza while 10 more were injured in airstrikes north of Gaza City.

Israeli warplanes targeted over 30 sites in Gaza Tuesday evening, including agricultural lands in Beit Lahiya, al-Zaytoun, al-Maghazi, Deir al-Balah, Al-Qarara, Khuza, eastern Rafah and eastern Shujaiyya.

Nine days of relative quiet came to an abrupt halt when three rockets struck southern Israel just hours before the truce was to expire at midnight local time.

There was no immediate claim of responsibility for the rockets.

An Israeli official said the negotiating team had been ordered back from Cairo where Egypt has been pushing for a decisive end to the Gaza bloodshed, which has killed more than 2,000 Palestinians and 67 on the Israeli side, mostly soldiers.

However, there was no immediate confirmation the team had left.

Hamas spokesman Sami Abu Zuhri denied the movement had fired rockets over the border Tuesday, accusing Israel of trying to sabotage the truce talks.

"We don't have any information about firing rockets from Gaza. The Israeli raids are intended to sabotage the negotiations in Cairo," he told AFP.

The Palestinians say agreement over a long-term arrangement in Gaza has been delayed by Israeli foot-dragging over key issues.

"The negotiations failed on Monday evening because the Israelis refused to include a port or an airport in the agreement," a Palestinian source close to the talks said, on condition of anonymity.

"The Egyptians then added a clause allowing for the postponement of talks on this issue in order to avoid Israel raising the issue of (ridding Gaza of) rockets and missiles," he said.

Israel has repeatedly demanded that Gaza be demilitarized although the subject is not overly mentioned in the Egyptian proposal as seen by AFP.

Hamas shift

Islamic Jihad on Tuesday accused Israel of "intransigence" while Hamas's Abu Zuhri said Israel was "playing for time" at the talks.

Hamas had repeatedly warned it would not extend the temporary ceasefire again, pressing for immediate gains that would allow it to claim concessions from Israel after the devastating four-week war, which began on July 8.

But a senior official within the Palestine Liberation Organization said Hamas appeared to have changed its position following a meeting at the weekend between exiled Hamas leader Khaled Mashaal and senior Palestinian official Saeb Erekat.

"It looks like Hamas and Islamic Jihad will agree to the Egyptian paper," he told AFP.

Egypt's proposal calls for both sides to immediately cease fire and includes provisions relating to opening the borders to allow for free movement of people, goods and construction materials, as well as a clause on regulating the financial crisis within the enclave.

But crucially, it postpones discussions on the thorniest issues, such as a port and airport, for another month "after calm and stability returns," along with talks over exchanging the remains of two Israeli soldiers for the release of Palestinian prisoners.

Meanwhile, Jordan's national carrier confirmed Tuesday it had resumed flights to Tel Aviv after suspending them for a month due to rocket fire near the runway of Israel's main airport.

Royal Jordanian, which operates 20 flights a week to Tel Aviv, said it resumed normal operations on Sunday.

The rocket strike had prompted major US and European airlines to halt flights to Israel for several days in July over safety fears.
