Israel, Gaza Militants Trade Attacks in Worst Flare-Up Since November 2012 
---------------------------------------------------------------------------


 
Israel has launched its most intense bombing of the Gaza Strip since the
assault of late 2012. Around 30 Israeli attacks have hit Gaza since
Wednesday following a barrage of Palestinian rocket fire. No casualties
have been reported on either side. The group Islamic Jihad has claimed
responsibility for the rocket attacks in what it called a response to
earlier Israeli strikes that killed three people. More rockets have now
been fired from Gaza as the flare-up continues for a third day.
