Earlier Sunday, Israel decided to stop the movement of goods into Gaza as a way of pressuring Hamas to stop its rocket and arson attacks against the Israeli home front. In the past few days, Israel has even stopped shipments of fuel into Gaza, and the Israeli navy has stopped fishing activity off the Gazan coast.
Meanwhile, Egypt's delegation to the Gaza Strip, which has been trying to broker a truce between Israel and Hamas, announced Sunday that it would not be visiting Gaza until the situation calmed down.
