Hamas asks for new truce as assault resumes哈馬斯要求新休戰毆打簡歷

With the situation rapidly changing, there was no immediate indication that either side had halted their fire, with several loud explosions heard in Gaza City, an AFP correspondent said.
The move came just hours after Israel said it would no longer abide by a unilateral cease-fire that had been rejected out of hand by Hamas as unacceptable without a full withdrawal of Israeli armor from the war-torn Gaza Strip.There was no immediate word on whether Israel would reciprocate, with a Hamas spokesman saying the movement had agreed to halt its fire from 1100 GMT in response to a request from the United Nations.
GAZA CITY/PARIS -- The Islamist Hamas movement on Sunday belatedly accepted diplomatic calls for an extension of a humanitarian cease-fire in Gaza shortly after Israel said it was resuming its devastating military assault.
The renewed violence came after a rare 12-hour break in the hostilities on Saturday, which was respected by both sides, with world powers urging both Israel and Hamas to extend the temporary truce.
“We all call on parties to extend the humanitarian cease-fire currently in force, by 24 hours that could be renewed,” French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius said at a Paris summit also attended by the top diplomats from the U.S., Britain, Germany, Italy, Qatar, Turkey and the EU.
And U.N. chief Ban Ki-moon also issued a statement, saying he “urgently appeals once again to all parties to declare a seven-day humanitarian cease-fire in Gaza” where the fighting has claimed the lives of more than 1,000 Palestinians and 46 people in Israel.
Pope Francis called on warring parties to put an end to violence that is wounding and killing countless children.
“Stop, please stop! I beg you with all my heart,” the pontiff pleaded in the weekly Angelus prayer.
“I think of the children, who are robbed of the hope of a dignified life, of a future. Dead children, wounded children, mutilated children, orphans, children who, for toys, have the debris of war. Children who do not know how to smile,” he said.
On Saturday night, Israel's security cabinet agreed to extend the temporary truce by 24 hours, but Hamas rejected the move, firing rockets over the border, one of which killed a soldier.
But after 12 hours of holding its fire, Israel said it was resuming its operations following “incessant” rocket fire from Hamas.
“Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Moshe Yaalon, this morning have ordered the IDF to resume operations against the Hamas terrorists who violated the humanitarian truce which the U.N. requested for the residents of Gaza,” it said.
Bombing Resumes
Ambulance sirens wailed as medics sprang into action, cars racing down the streets that quickly emptied of people who had ventured out to make the most of the lull.Shortly afterwards, the skies over Gaza were filled with the familiar sound of explosions, as plumes of black smoke quickly rose on the horizon, an AFP correspondent in Gaza City said.
In the ensuing four hours, nine Palestinians were killed in a series of air strikes and tank shelling, including two men who were riding a motorcycle in Nusseirat refugee camp in central Gaza, and a Christian woman in western Gaza City, Ashraf al-Qudra said.
The violence raised the death toll in Gaza to over 1,050, while more than 6,000 people have been injured, with U.N. figures showing that around three-quarters of the dead were civilians.
For Israelis, the quiet skies ended late on Saturday with sirens sounding up the coastal plain after Hamas refused to renew the 12-hour lull and began firing rockets over the border, one of which killed an Israeli soldier, the army said.
His death raised to 43 the overall number of troops killed in the past nine days since the army began the ground phase of Operation Protective Edge in order to destroy a sophisticated network of tunnels leading from Gaza to Israel.
Two Israeli civilians and a Thai agricultural worker have also been killed by rocket fire.
No Appetite for Truce
“It is clear that Hamas isn't interested in this cease-fire so I think we should renew the fighting and maybe even more so,” said Interior Minister Gilad Erdan, a security cabinet member who had voted late on Saturday in favor of extending the truce by 24 hours.By Sunday morning, there appeared to be little appetite in Israel to prolong the one-sided truce, with 86.5 percent of Israelis opposing any truce in the current climate, army radio said, quoting pollsters Mina Tzemah.
“After what we've seen last night and this morning, I'm fairly certain that we should renew our fire even stronger,” he said, while Israel was initially observing a cease-fire.
Intelligence Minister Yuval Steinitz said Israel's agreement to hold its fire in the face of a fresh Hamas rejection had given greater “legitimacy” to continue the military operation that had the ultimate aim of “demilitarizing” Gaza.
“That will be the root treatment that will prevent attacks on Israel and ease the suffering of the population of Gaza,” he said.
Around 50 Arrested at Pro-Palestinian Protest in Paris
Police arrested around 50 people at a banned pro-Palestinian protest in central Paris on Saturday that degenerated into clashes between demonstrators and armor-clad riot squads.
The rally, which gathered an estimated 5,000 people in the capital's Place de la Republique, dispersed after 90 minutes during which police who were targeted with rocks and other projectiles responded with tear gas.
The demonstration against Israel's Gaza offensive that has killed more than 1,000 Palestinians comes after other protests last weekend in Paris and a suburb that had also initially been banned descended into chaos.
Organizers of Saturday's protest had tried going to court to get the ban overturned, but they were unsuccessful and Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve warned that they would be held “responsible for any unrest ... and liable to penal sanctions.”
