2014-08-27来源:和谐英语

An open-ended ceasefire has now taken effect in Gaza between Israel and Hamas. The latest truce has halted a seven-week conflict that has killed more than 21-hundred Palestinians and over 60 Israelis.

Fighting persisted until the last minute the ceasefire went into affect. In Israel, mortar shells fired from Gaza killed one man and seriously wounded two others.

Officials from Hamas and Islamic Jihad, the main groups fighting Israel, had said the ceasefire included an Israeli agreement to ease its blockade of Gaza, to allow relief supplies and construction materials into the war-battered territory.
