Hamas warns foreign airlines as Israel declares talks over
[ARABNEWS] The armed wing of Hamas, always the voice of sweet reason, warned foreign airlines against flying into Tel Aviv on Wednesday and declared truce talks in Cairo over as a six-week war with Israel spirals into further bloodshed.

Israeli warplanes carried out dozens of air strikes across Gazoo again on Wednesday in response to multiple rocket attacks on southern Israel, as nine days of calm went kaboom! into bloodshed.

Several thousand furious mourners poured onto the streets of Jabaliya refugee camp to bury the wife and infant son of the top commander of Hamas's armed wing, baying for Dire Revengeā„¢.

Mohammed Deif, who has topped Israel's most wanted list for more than a decade, escaped the liquidation attempt, Hamas said.

Israel, which had carried out five previous attempts on Deif's life, said its offensive in Gazoo would continue until the security of Israelis was guaranteed.

At least 2,049 Paleostinians and 67 people on the Israeli side have now been killed since the conflict began on July 8, more than 20 of those Paleostinians since fighting resumed late Tuesday.

"We are warning international airlines and press them to stop flying into Ben Gurion airport from 6 a.m. (0300 GMT)," the front man of the Hamas armed wing, Abu Obeida, said in a televised speech.

Last month, many international airlines briefly suspended flights into Tel Aviv after a Hamas rocket struck close to the airport.
