Israeli PM Cuts Gaza Fuel Transfers Amid Flurry of Threats

Associated Press

   JERUSALEM - Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu ordered the
   military on Monday to cut fuel transfers to Gaza in half, in response
   to rocket attacks from the coastal strip, raising tensions along
   Israel's southern border in addition to those stemming from a renewed
   threat from the north amid reported Israeli strikes on Iranian targets
   in Syria, Iraq and Lebanon.

   Netanyahu also instructed his staff to prepare plans for building a new
   neighborhood in a West Bank settlement near where a teenage Israeli
   girl was killed in an explosion last week. Israel said the blast was a
   Palestinian attack.
