Mid of half empty shelf inside shop STORYLINE Israeli aircraft fired missiles at militants in the northern Gaza Strip on Friday and Palestinians sent rocket barrages flying into Israel as newly resumed violence threatened to bury a five-month-old ceasefire. Israel has sealed its crossings with the coastal territory for ten days during the upsurge in violence, halting shipments of food aid and fuel, and causing the United Nations to warn of a severe crisis. Israel\'s military said the airstrike targeted rocket launchers, and an official within Gaza\'s Health Ministry said two gunmen were moderately wounded. Hamas militants in the northern Gaza Strip unleashed a barrage of rockets at the nearby Israeli town of Sderot, where Israeli rescue services said they were treating one person wounded by shrapnel. Several other rockets hit agricultural communities near the Israel-Gaza border and more rockets hit the coastal city of Ashkelon. No casualties were reported in those strikes. Israeli police and rescue services announced they were raising their alert level in preparation for more attacks. Hamas claimed responsibility for firing the rockets in a text message sent to reporters. The June ceasefire began disintegrating last week when Israeli forces entered Gaza to try destroy what the military said was a tunnel dug by militants to carry out a planned cross-border raid. Eleven militants have been killed in more than a week of fighting, and some 140 rockets and mortars have been fired from Gaza at Israel. Both sides have said they want to continue the truce, but events signal the opposite is happening.
