Rocket Attacks Continue Amid Ceasefire Talk
(Times of Israel) Raphael Ahren - On Monday there was more Hamas rocket fire into Israel, as well as Israeli air strikes on Hamas missile launch sites, key personnel and terror infrastructure. "If what has been done up to now will not return quiet to the south, we have no choice but to expand the operation," Vice Prime Minister Moshe Ya'alon said Monday. "The residents of the south - and in recent days not only the south - cannot live under a constant barrage of missiles and rockets. This is an intolerable situation." Israel Channel 2 TV reported on Monday that Egypt and the U.S. had asked Israel not to launch a ground invasion during the next 24 hours, while officials in Jerusalem stated Hamas must hold all fire on Israel before they'd consider a possible ceasefire.
