we will lose. Today, against them. Tomorrow, they are against us. If we
have to die, let us die like a man."

Southern Israel this morning. One man was lightly injured.

At least three rockets have been fired from Gaza and intercepted by
Israel's Iron Dome system.

0530 GMT: Israel maintained the aerial assault on Gaza on Monday. As Gazans
buried the more than 30 people who were slain on Sunday --- notably 12
members of a single family, killed when a four-story residential building
was flattened --- another 24 people were killed by shells and missiles.

The death toll since Israel launched operations on Wednesday is 111. Three
Israelis were killed by Gazan rockets last Thursday.

With more than 100 "targets" overnight, the Israelis continued to hit
buildings and camps with civilians, by accident or by design. For the third
time in two days, it struck a media centre, killing a senior Islamic Jihad
official.

Monday morning's speculation about an Israeli ground invasion was eased
when West Jerusalem put out the news that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu
had decided against the escalation for now, giving time to efforts for a
ceasefire. Negotiations continued through the day, with Hamas officials and
at least one senior Israeli involved in Cairo-based discussions, but there
was no apparent advance towards a resolution.
