Gaza militants renew rocket fire despite truce
JERUSALEM (AP) — Palestinian militants in the Hamas-ruled Gaza Strip fired rockets and mortars into southern Israel early Monday, despite an unofficial truce meant to defuse days of escalating violence.

Around midday, a group that had held out from joining the cease-fire announced it would comply.

The Israeli military said 15 projectiles were launched at Israel overnight, most of which fell in open fields. No injuries were reported. Israel retaliated with an airstrike before midnight Sunday that targeted a rocket-launching device.
