Hamas: No Cease-Fire with Israel until Demands Are Met
(Washington Post) William Booth, Sudarsan Raghavan and Ruth Eglash - Hamas said Monday that it would not agree to a cease-fire with Israel until its demands were met, offering little hope for quick progress toward ending the conflict that has inflicted heavy costs on each side. Seven more Israeli soldiers were killed in fierce fighting Monday, bringing the Israeli military toll to 27 dead. More than 560 people in Gaza have been reported killed. Palestinians fired more than 100 rockets at Israel on Monday, including three at Tel Aviv.
