Following an urgent meeting this evening, various Palestinian factions in the Gaza Strip agree to raise their alert level, sources tell Al Jazeera, amid fears that renewed rocket fire could quickly escalate into all-out war.
The network says the alert level will be raised for the next two days.
There is no immediate statement from Hamas on the matter.
In Israel, the Kan broadcaster reports that defense officials fear rocket fire out of Gaza may continue, and have put air defense units on high alert.
