Fares Akram and Tia Goldenberg, Associated Press, Gaza City

Transcribed from the clipping
“GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip — Egyptian mediators worked to end a flare-up between Israel and Palestinian militants in the Gaza Strip on Sunday… Israel said it launched the offensive because of an imminent threat from the Islamic Jihad… The Palestinian Health Ministry said 31 people had been killed, including six children and four women… Israel said some of the deaths were caused by rockets that fell short… Ultra-nationalist firebrand lawmaker Itamar Ben Gvir visited the Jerusalem holy site…”
Context added by this archive
The fullest of the three. It is also the only one to carry, in the same column, the Israeli claim about rockets falling short and the figure for children killed.
