It is hard to tell exactly what is going on with a slow mobile connection as my main source of info, but it appears that Israel has launch a massive strike against Hamas targets in Gaza. The last report I read said a few hundred dead in Gaza (mostly militants) and one dead in Isreal (a civilian). Israel is trying to stop the rocket bombardment of the south which have seen some 300+ fall since the cease fire ended a week ago. That makes it about 3000 rockets so far this year.
The reaction from the rest of the world is exactly what you would expect, but I do not think Israel had to many other options. While these strikes do not usually stop the rocket bombardment, no nation on earth would or could sit back as dozens of rockets rain down on their land daily.
