Hamas' Ministry of the interior has reached an agreement with Palestinian factions in the Gaza Strip to stop rocket fire into Israel, Hamas' Interior Minister Fathi Hamad announced during a press conference Saturday.
Hamad said according to the agreement, rocket fire will only be used in retaliation to Israeli military offences within the Strip. Late Friday night, a Qassam rocket landed in an open field in the Shaar Hanegev Regional Council. No injuries or damage was reported. (Ali Waked)
