Reshaping Perspectives and Catalyzing Diplomatic Evolution

Israel and Palestine.. The ceasefire continues despite the “erroneous missile”

Palestinian militants fired a rocket into southern Israel on Sunday afternoon. Palestinian media said the launch was caused by a “technical error”, as gunmen tried to disable the missile.

The Israeli military said the missile landed in an open area in southern Israel, adding: “In response to rocket fire from the Gaza Strip this afternoon, IDF tanks shelled two military points in the Hamas in the northern Gaza Strip.

The latest round of fighting in Gaza erupted on Tuesday, when Israeli fighter jets killed three senior Islamic Jihad leaders in response to earlier rocket fire from Gaza.

The killings sparked a barrage of gunfire from militants and the blaze threatened to drag the region into another all-out war, until Egypt brokered a ceasefire that lasted. late Saturday.

The calm has brought a sense of relief to the two million residents of Gaza and the hundreds of thousands of Israelis who have been trapped in shelters in recent days.

Gaza’s main sea crossing with Israel reopened on Sunday, after warnings that keeping it closed would disrupt Gaza’s only power plant, deepening the electricity crisis in the Strip.

After the armistice, the government lifted most restrictions on residents of southern Israel, who had borne the brunt of the rocket fire.

The Israeli army said more than 1,400 rockets were fired at it during the fighting, some of which hit areas in Tel Aviv and Jerusalem.

On the other hand, Israeli planes bombed more than 400 targets, according to a preliminary military count, which also showed that a fifth of the missiles were fired incorrectly and landed in Gaza, while most of the remaining missiles were intercepted or landed in open areas. .

This is the latest in a long series of battles between Israeli forces and Palestinians in Gaza.
