Israel dramatically increased the intensity of its air strike in Gaza, reaching hundreds of Hamas targets while its air defense system was intercepting rockets. The latest reports say Palestinian militants have fired at least four rockets at Jerusalem, two of which were intercepted by the missile defense system "Iron Dome" and others fell in open fields, the army said. Palestinians reported 16 dead in one house and a cafe on the beach. Military spokesman Lieutenant Colonel Peter Lerner said Israel reached more than 320 white overnight, mainly networks of tunnels and rocket launchers deployed in various locations. This raised the number of targets reached 750 in a rule offensive that has killed 80 Palestinians. Lerner said Israel has mobilized some 20,000 reservists for a possible ground operation in Gaza, but for now is focused on getting the most out of their passing game. A ground invasion could cause large civilian casualties on the Palestinian side and the Israeli army. Neither side shows signs of yielding in its most intense fighting from an eight-day battle in late 2012. Israel says only think of a truce if Hamas stops firing rockets. Militants have launched hundreds of rockets into Israel all, which has disrupted the life of the country. There have been no serious injuries, and the defense system called "Iron Dome" has intercepted at least 70 projectiles directed to population centers. "The land option should be the last option and only if absolutely necessary.'s A carefully designed plan of action," Lerner said. The Israeli security cabinet will meet in the coming hours. The defense minister, Moshe Yaalon, said the operation was taking place as planned. "The armed forces have achieved significant successes," he said. "We will continue to understand that this escalation does not benefit them and not tolerate firing rockets at towns and our citizens." Palestinian medical officials said the attack early Thursday hit a house in the southern town of Khan Yunis, killing eight members of the Al Haj. The army said it had reached a car in Gaza on carrying three Islamic Jihad militants who had participated in rocket fire, raising the Palestinian death toll to at least 75 people.
