Terrorists violated the daily three-hour truce aimed at allowing humanitarian aid to flow into the Gaza Strip.

Gaza terrorists on Friday afternoon broke the three-hour humanitarian truce, during which Israel let in vital aid to the Strip via the Kerem Shalom border crossing.

While the supplies were being transferred, Gaza gunmen fired several mortar shells at the terminal. No one was wounded.

Israel rejected the UNSC ceasefire proposal as well:

"Israel is pushing ahead with its offensive in the Gaza Strip after branding a UN Security Council resolution demanding an immediate ceasefire "unworkable".

Dozens of Palestinians were killed on Friday as Israeli warplanes pounded areas across the Gaza Strip and tanks shelled Jabaliya and Beit Lahiya, medical sources said.

Ehud Olmert, the Israeli prime minister, rejected the truce call following a security cabinet meeting."

The ceasefire proposal was effectively meaningless, as it was rejected by both sides.
