Rockets Fired At Israel

Rockets were fired at Israel on Tuesday shaking the Gaza Truce. Palestinian militants fired three homemade rockets into southern Israel threatening to unravel a cease-fire, days after it began. Israel responded by closing vital border crossings into Gaza. Israel refrained from military action despite what it called a "gross violation" of the truce. They said it would send an envoy soon to Egypt to work on the next stage of a broader cease-fire agreement which would mean a prisoner swap that would bring home an Israeli soldier held by Hamas for more than two years. I wonder if he is really still alive. I would not be surprised to learn that he has been killed.
