Rocket Sirens Continue to Sound as Gaza-Israel Conflict Escalates.

Israel has halted cease-fire talks with Gaza militants following renewed rocket barrages into Israel. The decision was made before the rocket fire on the Jerusalem area, and Israel is expected to issue a severe response to the attacks. The Gaza Electricity Authority says there will be no diesel fuel for the power plant within 72 hours. The IDF has attacked several Islamic Jihad targets in the Gaza Strip, and rocket sirens have sounded in Gaza border communities for the third time in an hour. The death toll in Gaza has risen to 31, including six children and three women.
