Israeli-Palestinian Truce Fails

Israeli-Palestinian Truce
Gaza: temporary ceasefire between Israeli forces and Hamas in honor of the visit of Prime Minister of Egypt Hisham Kandil for three hours in Gaza failed to materialize.

Command ceasefire asked Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu a few hours before the arrival Kandil. "Netanyahu approved the request of Egypt to exercise restraint during the visit Kandil. With conditions, Hamas does not attack, "said an Israeli government official. 

However, Reuters reported several Gaza rocket attack several locations in southern Israel. As a result of the attack, the Israeli Air Force attacked the house of Hamas commander in southern Gaza. 

The hospital Gaza reported that two people died in the attack, one of them are children. This amount increases the total death toll since Israel on Wednesday to 21 people. But strangely, the Israeli military denied this attack. "Hamas is the one who does not respect the cease-fire during the visit of Prime Minister of Israel," a spokesman for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Ofir Gendelman, in his Twitter account.Israeli army announced it would call 16 thousand reserve soldiers. This bodes no possible ground war between Israel and Hamas will soon take place.

On Thursday evening, Israeli forces bombarded the house of origin Hamas prime minister, Ismail Haniyeh. The attack failed to kill Haniyeh, who was not at home. This is a countermove after Hamas rocket touched location near the Capital city of Tel Aviv, for the first time in 20 years. 

Visit Kandil is a form of open support Egypt after Gaza bombarded with attacks for two days. "Egypt will try to help make the Israeli aggression in Palestine stopped. And we tried to keep the two sides are willing to call a truce, "Kandil said on the sidelines of a visit to a Gaza hospital. 

Al-Muslim Brotherhood, Egypt's election winner, known to be close to Hamas. To help conditions in Gaza, Egypt has hosted several informal talks between Israel and Hamas. Kandil asserts that Egypt supported the establishment of a Palestinian state with its capital in Jerusalem. 

The world were trying to drown out the bloody conflict in Gaza. UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon will reportedly visit Israel and Egypt next week to mediate a ceasefire.
