Hamas has released video footage showing what it says are rockets being fired from Gaza towards Israel.

The footage, which Hamas says was shot on Saturday, includes a caption in Arabic which reads: "two rockets being launched towards Sufa military base". Sufa is a base on the Israeli-Gaza border. However, despite recent exchanges, high profile political leaders and militants in Gaza have expressed their wish to maintain a ceasefire.

Mushir Al- Masri, Hamas Official, said, "We confirm that there is an agreement between Palestinian factions on the issue of a truce. We are committed to a truce as long as Israel commits itself to it. Over the coming hours we will show this direction. We are monitoring the situation on the ground and any violation from the Zionist enemy will of course return the situation to how it was before. It will leave the Israelis responsible for the results of any escalation."
