Other Israeli attacks Monday destroyed the five-story building housing the Hamas-run Religious Affairs Ministry and killed a top Gaza leader of Palestinian Islamic Jihad, another terror group whom the Israeli military blamed for some of the thousands of rocket attacks launched at Israel in recent days. Meanwhile, for the third time in a week, the US blocked a joint statement from the UN Security Council calling for an immediate ceasefire between Israel and Hamas, two diplomats involved in the matter said Sunday. The draft statement made no explicit mention of Hamas rocket fire in Gaza.
