BREAKING: Israeli military says rocket fired from Gaza at Israel as 5-hour humanitarian cease-fire ends

Israeli military says rocket fired from Gaza at Israel as 5-hour humanitarian cease-fire ends. A Hamas official has also dismissed those reports of a ceasefire agreement. "The news about a ceasefire is incorrect. There are continuing efforts but no agreement until now," Hamas spokesman Sami Abu Zuhri told AFP on Thursday.

Israel's hardline foreign minister, Avigdor Lieberman, who voted against a ceasefire earlier this week, has dismissed reports of a new truce.
Haaretz quoted him telling Israeli diplomats that the reports of a cease-fire were "far from reflecting reality".

UN secretary general Ban Ki-moon said the humanitarian pause was "mostly" respected by all parties.
A statement from his office said he was hopeful of an agreement in Cairo. The Secretary-General reiterates the United Nations readiness to help facilitate all efforts to this end. He has dispatched his Special Coordinator to Gaza to help further de-escalate tensions and achieve a lasting ceasefire that will spare Palestinians and Israelis future such rounds of violence.
