Truce ‘Strained’ by Palestinian Rocket Attacks

Yes, it’s another Palestinian attempt at random murder, as they play a pathetic shell game and pretend Hamas is honoring the truce, while “other groups” (nudge, wink) try to sabotage it: Qassam hits western Negev.

Another ceasefire violation: A Qassam rocket was fired Thursday afternoon from the Gaza Strip into Israel, exploding in an open area in Sderot’s industrial zone. There were no reports of injuries or damage.
 
The al-Aqsa Martyrs’ Brigades, Fatah’s military wing, took responsibility for firing the rocket. Sources in the Gaza Strip believe that the firing was meant to embarrass Hamas and to harm the ceasefire efforts.

And the wire services are issuing their usual bizarre headlines:

New rocket strike on Israel as Gaza truce enters second week
