Islamic Jihad announces Gaza cease-fire
Palestinian Islamic Jihad announced an immediate cease-fire with Israel on Sunday following a sharp rise in violence in the past several days.
Islamic Jihad "will cooperate with the cease-fire, but maintains our right to resist the aggression," a spokesman for the military wing of the group told CNN, adding that calm "will depend upon the behavior of the occupation," a reference to Israel.
The deal was brokered by Egypt, said Abu Ahmed, as the Islamic Jihad representative refers to himself.
Israel did not immediately confirm there had been a deal, which Islamic Jihad announced hours after the Israeli Air Force struck several sites that it suspected were "terror centers" Sunday.
The air force said the Sunday attacks targeted three suspected rocket launching sites and one "terror tunnel" in northern Gaza; and two "terror activity" sites in southern Gaza, as the wave of back-and-forth attacks between the Israeli military and Palestinian militants continued.
No one was hurt in the attacks, security forces in Gaza said.
On Saturday, at least 10 people were killed in Gaza and southern Israel.

The Islamists always announce a cease fire when they run out of weapons.
They have enough weapons. But it is their local tactics in order to ease the Israeli efforts to catch them. After some time, hours or days, they resume their terror at the proper time, as they might consider. In short, you shouldn't take Muslims' words for granted.
I guess Islamic Jihad hoping to kidnapper more Israel soldier instead Israel iron Dome up task only smell tech problem solve ruin plans. I say Saudi Arabia offer to pay 1,000,000 dollars to anyone kidnap Israel soldier pay price Israel for damage cause.
Iran must be getting slow on their deliveries to the palestinians. They ran out of rockets way to soon this time.
As I heard in the radio they have already shot 3 missiles into Ashkelon, Israel in the evening of the same day (Sunday 10.30.2011). You can't and shouldn't trust Arabs.
whos this jihad guy? and how come he's in charge?
His first name is Islamic and he likes to run around hollering allahu al ahkbar.
Sounds like real nice folks.
that's MR.islamic jihad to you!!!
The stranglehold of the Zionist regime in Tel Aviv on Gaza thru its blockade is like that of an Anaconda. Palestinians are lucky if enough food & medicines reach them. The weapons they have are mostly home made unguided rockets.
Though IDF has added a new weapon in their array to kill Palestinians- armed drones. As if attack helicopters, missiles, tanks & bull dozers are not enough to deter stone throwing kids & these 'terrifying rockets' Palestinians are using to destroy Israel.
Some brave Americans & Jews world over have been trying to get much needed supplies to Gaza by sea. Hope they succeed despite Israel's ploys to thwart these efforts.
Sure we should not trust those islamists or whatever. get a dose of this;
" America is a thing which can be moved in any direction". " I deceived Clinton on the Peace process" benjamin netanyahu in a video which surfaced in 2009 getting our State Deptt in a royal flux.
" 9/11 has been very good for Israel". " We are benefitting from attacks on Twin Towers & Pentagon and America struggling in Iraq". Benjamin Netanyahu in a speech to Bar Ilan University in April, 2008.
America was created by England and France,don't ask your self why?! it's jest bisiness for them.for me it only peine about peace,why, because i grow up on comunist country and i am still living that on europe.
Folks, read " Dangerous Liaisons" by Andrew & Leslie Cocburn & get the shock of learning how Israel stole US military secrets. New York Times expose of how Israelis are selling US weaponry tech to enemies of US, March 1992.
Sure we should not trust these islamists or whatever. lol
Wake up Americans.

Cocburn is what you get from hangin out with Phillip.
Another B/S statement from the terror state, They will launch more rockets and isreal will fight back.....this action will never stop
