A series of strikes hit the northern Gaza Strip as rockets are intercepted above the Israeli border city of Sderot, on the third day after a seven-day truce in the Israel-Hamas war expired.

Smoke billows on the Gaza City skyline as Israeli strikes, some rockets are fired from the Palestinian enclave, after days of fighting that has killed dozens, all but one of them Palestinian. IMAGES
Images show rockets fired from the Gaza Strip and an Israeli air strike hitting Gaza. The fighting is the worst in Gaza since a war last year devastated the impoverished coastal territory, home to some 2.3 million Palestinians, and forced Israelis to seek shelter from rockets. IMAGES
Columns of smoke rise over the city of Rafah, in the southern Gaza Strip, following Israeli airstrikes. The military's thrust into the eastern sector of the overcrowded city comes a day after Israel warned Palestinians in the area to evacuate ahead of a long-threatened ground operation. IMAGES
Rockets are fired towards Israel from Rafah in the south of the Gaza Strip as the war between Hamas and Israel enters its fourth month. Israel's army said late Saturday its forces would now focus on central and southern areas of the territory having "completed the dismantling of the Hamas military framework in the northern Gaza Strip".
