By Nidal al-Mughrabi and Jeffrey Heller GAZA/JERUSALEM (Reuters) - Israel said militants fired rockets from
Gaza on Tuesday in violation of a
truce and that it struck back with attacks in the Palestinian enclave,
fighting that put talks in Cairo on a
long-term ceasefire in jeopardy. An Israeli official said Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu ordered his negotiating team in Egypt to return home. Three rockets struck southern Israel, near the city of Beersheba, the military said, nearly eight hours before a ceasefire - extended by a day on Monday - was due to expire. A military spokesman said that in response, "terror targets across the
Gaza Strip" were attacked.
