Hundreds of Palestinians poured into the streets after an uneasy
truce took force today to inspect damage to their homes, and many lined
up outside banks to withdraw cash and stock up on supplies. Explosions
continued until minutes before the ceasefire (left) and Israeli forces
used the time to restock tanks (right) as Palestinians returned to the
rubble of Gaza City (centre). In one village, Gaza's Health Ministry
said 18 members of the same family were killed. The Palestinian death
toll topped 900 as at least 40 bodies were pulled from the rubble in the
first few hours of the halt in fighting, which began at 6am UK time.
Israel said it would continue to search for tunnels it says are used by
militants during the truce.
