The Gaza Ceasefire took effect on Saturday after five days of Deadly Fighting that has killed 33 Palestinians and two people in Israel. The truce was due to take effect at 10:00 pm local time but in the final 30 minutes running up to 1900 GMT dozens of rockets were fired from Gaza towards Israel prompting renewed air strikes. Most of the rockets were intercepted by Israeli air defences but a few more rockets were still fired after 1900 GMT, followed by fresh Israeli strikes before things appeared to calm down. Hundreds of people then began to emerge into the streets of Gaza after days during which they have been empty.
