Israel hit Islamic Jihad targets in Gaza for a second day while Palestinian militants launched more than 400 rockets at Israel
Egypt hosted senior Islamic Jihad official Mohammad al-Hindi in Cairo, part of truce talks to end a flare-up now in its third day, two faction officials and a foreign diplomat told Reuters.
The deaths of Ali Ghali, head of Islamic Jihad's rocket force, and of Ahmed Abu Daqqa, a senior commander of its armed wing, brought to five the number of senior figures from the faction killed since Israel began striking Gaza on Tuesday.
Israeli jets hit targets including a mortar post in the northern part of the enclave and an operational room for directing anti-tank missiles. It said more than 100 rockets - many of them improvised - had misfired, killing four Palestinians, including a 10-year-old girl. Islamic Jihad said that was "completely incorrect".
