(Gaza) Britain blames Hamas for Israeli attacks

 


British Foreign Secretary William Hague said Hamas “bears principal responsibility’’ for the current crisis in Gaza, saying it should cease attacks against Israel immediately.

His comment came as the death toll hit 13 in 20 hours of Israeli air strikes, which also left at least 120 people injured, medics said. In the same period, Gaza rockets killed three Israelis and injured another five in a direct hit on a residential building in the southern town of Kiryat Malachi, police said, AFP reports.

Hague also strongly urged Israel to do its “utmost’’ to reduce tensions, avoid civilian casualties and help create the conditions for peace, warning: “It is imperative to avoid the risk of a spiral of violence.’’

Since the violence erupted when Israel killed a top Hamas militant on Wednesday afternoon, the military has carried out “around 150 strikes’’ on Gaza, a spokeswoman said.
In the same period, “at least 195 rockets’’ hit Israel while another 48 were intercepted by the Iron Dome anti-missile system.
