Israel widens offensive,
thousands of Gazans flee homes
HARINDER MISHRA

Jerusalem, July 13: Israel
for the first time today
launched a ground operation inside northern Gaza
to silence Hamas rocket fire
and thousands of Palestinians fled their homes after
the Israeli military threatened to widen its assault that
has killed nearly 170 people
in six days.
Ignoring global calls for
a ceasefire, Israeli troops
- thought to be naval commandos - briefly entered
Gaza early today and raided
a missile launching site.
This is the first time Israeli
forces have acknowledged
they've entered Gaza in what
appeared to be the ground
assault. Israel has been
building up its troops along
the border with northern
Gaza, fuelling speculation of
a possible ground invasion.
During the incursion,
which lasted about half an
hour, both sides exchanged
gunfire at the launch site, an
Israeli military source said.
Four Israeli troops suffered light injuries, but all
the soldiers returned home
safely, the source said.
The Israeli jets later
dropped leaflets at Beit
Lahiya, home to about
100,000 people, warning
residents to evacuate their
homes ahead of their "short
and temporary" campaign to
begin today.
"The Israeli Defense
Forces intends to attack terrorists and terror infrastruc-

tures ..." the leaflets said,
mentioning a list of areas
that will be targeted.
"Israel is currently
attacking, and will continue to attack, every area
from which rockets are
being launched at its territory." More than 4,000 Gaza
residents had taken refuge
at eight bases of the United
Nations Relief and Works
Agency, spokesman Chris
Gunness said.
Meanwhile, around 800
Palestinians holding dual
citizenship have reportedly
begun leaving Gaza via Israel's Erez Crossing. Israel carried out overnight air strikes

against Gaza's security headquarters and police stations,
in the heaviest bombardment since operations began
on July 8.
A senior security official
has said the operation in
northern Gaza is necessary
because the area accounts
for far more rocket attacks
than other areas.
The IDF struck 200 targets in Gaza over the past
24 hours, including civilian
institutions and mosques
with suspected Hamas ties.
The other targets include 53
underground rocket launchers, 11 rocket production and
storage centers, nine Hamas

command and control centers, and five training camps.
Some 1,320 targets have been
hit by the IDF since the start
of the operation to stop rocket
attacks on Israel.
The Israeli jets have also
struck 62 buildings and 14
Hamas command rooms
since Monday, holding the
Islamist faction that has
ruled Gaza since June 2007
responsible for the latest
escalation.
Some 167 Palestinians
have so far been killed and
more 1,000 people - mainly
civilians - have been injured
in the Israeli offensive,
medics in Gaza said.

In response, Palestinian
militants have launched
more than 800 rockets at
Israel, including 130 in the
last 24 hours, the Israeli military said today.
The UN Security Council
urged Israel and Hamas yesterday to end their hostilities in Gaza, calling on both
sides to respect "international humanitarian laws"
and return to the "calm and
restitution of the November
2012 ceasefire." Israeli Prime
Minister Benjamin Netanyahu expressed "regret" over
the loss of civilian lives in
the bombing of Gaza, while
accusing Hamas of using
Palestinian civilians as
"human shields".
However, he maintained
that Israel will continue to
"act with strength" against
rocket fire emanating from
Gaza. He said that the Israeli
army is "conducting a vigorous military campaign"
against all the militant factions in Gaza.
France today condemned
the Hamas rocket attacks,
but also called on Israel to
"show restraint" in its Gaza
campaign and avoid civilian casualties. Germany is
sending Foreign Minister
Frank-Walter Steinmeier
to Israel tomorrow for talks
with Israelis and Palestinians to help negotiate an
end to the violence.
In Vatican, Pope Francis
appealed for peace in Gaza
during his weekly Angelus
prayer, calling for "concrete
gestures to build peace". PTI

Baghdad, July 13: Iraq's
fractious parliament met
today and again failed to make
any progress toward forming
a new government, as militants gained ground north of
Baghdad in a renewed drive.
World powers and Iraq's
top Shiite cleric Grand Ayatollah Ali al-Sistani have
piled pressure on MPs to put
aside their differences, with
the country facing a major
jihadist-led onslaught that
has overrun chunks of five
provinces. But acting parliament speaker Mahdi Hafez
announced at today's session
that "no type of agreement
was reached... between the
various blocs", and the ses-

this, saying not all blocs were
in agreement, despite there
being more than enough MPs
present to hold a vote.
The UN's Iraq envoy Nickolay Mladenov had warned
that "failing to move forward
on electing a new speaker, a
new president and a new government risks plunging the
country into chaos".
"It will only serve the
interests of those who seek
to divide the people of Iraq

for peace and prosperity." Today's session was the

groups, racketeers and sectarian outfits. The Tehreeke-Khilafat's support could bolster Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi's
influence as he tries to win
support for his caliphate,
potentially extending his
influence into South Asia
and challenging al-Qaeda
leadership. ISIS or IS is an alQaeda splinter group and it
has seized hundreds of square
miles in Iraq and Syria,
declaring an Islamic Caliphate. Al-Qaeda has distanced
itself from the group, chiding

its aggressive, brutal expansion. PTI
