Israel resumes offensive activities after Hamas rocket attack
Gaza City, July 27 (IBNS) The Israeli army on Sunday said it resumed its raids on Gaza by land, sea and air after Hamas continued firing rockets, ending a unilateral humanitarian truce.
"Due to Hamas' incessant rocket fire during the humanitarian window, we are renewing our aerial, naval and ground activity in Gaza," Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said in a statement.
"Due to flagrant violations of humanitarian remission by #hamas, the #IDF is now resuming offensive activities," Israeli army spokesman Peter Lerner wrote on Twitter.
Israel earlier accepted UN's request for a 24-hour ceasefire, but warned it would act if it was breached by Hamas.
More than 1,000 Palestinians and 46 Israelis have been killed, a BBC report said.
