JERUSALEM (AP) — Palestinian militants in the Gaza Strip carried out an unprecedented infiltration Saturday into southern Israel and fired thousands of rockets into the country as the ruling Hamas militant group announced the beginning of a new operation. Israel began striking targets in Gaza in response, setting the stage for what was likely to be a new heavy round of fighting between the bitter enemies.Videos posted on social media showed what appeared to be uniformed Palestinian gunmen inside the Israeli border town of Sderot. A video from Gaza showed what looked like the lifeless body of an Israeli soldier being trampled by an angry crowd shouting “God is Great.” Another video appeared to show Palestinian militants dragging away a live Israeli soldier on a motorcycle. Other videos showed a crowd of Palestinian men dancing around and atop an Israeli tank that was on fire.

You must be interested in people, their existence, how they live,” said Yamada, 92, looking frail but sprightly with a shock of white hair.“Every human being has something shining inside, like a pearl, that bit of goodness,” he told The Associated Press at an office near Tokyo’s Kabukiza theater, where his “Bunshichi Mottoi Monogatari” plays through the end of t...'Missing mom' billboards pop up in L.A. seeking woman who vanished
