Israeli assaults resume in Gaza neighborhood, two-hour truce collapses
[Al Ahram] Assaults resumed against Gazoo in the neighborhood of Shejaia on Sunday less than an hour after a short-lived "humanitarian truce" was agreed to allow the evacuation of maimed from the area. Israel had agreed to observe an immediate two-hour humanitarian ceasefire in Gazoo's Shejaiya neighbourhood, halting a blistering bombing campaign in the area. Israel's military claims its forces were shot at shortly after the two-hour truce, facilitated by the Red Thingy, had begun at 1:30pm (1030 GMT), and that it had resumed combat operations. Hamas, always the voice of sweet reason, had no immediate comment yet on Israeli allegations it had breached the ceasefire.
