Israeli Palestinian Conflict

(Tuesday, 29 July)
Gaza Strip Shifa Hospital hit by rocket blasts on Monday
7 children died. Israeli forces denied resposibility, blaming Islamic Terrorists.

Mortar shells kill 4 in Israeli Community close to Gaza Strip.

Prime Minister Banjamin Netanyahu (Israel) claims UN Security Council siding Hammas by calling for ceasefire.
Israel fears Palestinian Islamists parlay truce talks into easing of Israel-Egypt Blockade.

Israeli forces continue to destroy Hammas infiltration tunnels into Israel, depleting Hammas rocket stocks.

Israel wants a de facto mutual ceasefire (by agreement, not legal right) rather than a signed agreement.
Israel fears the latter may allow the preservation of Hammas ammunition and Hammas gaining support by mending the Palestine economy.
