Navigation Primary Navigation Home Singapore Asia Pacific World Business Entertainment Sports Technology Top Stories Most Popular Secondary Navigation Africa Europe Latin America Middle East North America Search Search: Obama's envoy calls for strengthening of Gaza truce AFP - Thursday, January 29 JERUSALEM (AFP) - - US peace envoy George Mitchell has said it is vital to consolidate the ceasefire that ended the Gaza war, as tensions rose in the enclave after a deadly bombing by Palestinian militants. Mitchell met Israeli leaders after flying in from Egypt on the second leg of his maiden trip to the region under instructions from President Barack Obama to "engage vigorously" and resuscitate Israeli-Palestinian peace talks. "The prime minister and I discussed the critical importance to consolidate the ceasefire, including a cessation of hostilities, an end to smuggling and re-opening of the crossings based on 2005 agreements," he told reporters after meeting Prime Minister Ehud Olmert. He was referring to agreements under which Gaza's Rafah crossing with Egypt, the sole border that bypasses Israel, was to be operated by Egyptian and Palestinian Authority forces, along with European Union observers and Israeli monitoring via live cameras. Echoing comments made in Egypt after meeting President Hosni Mubarak, Mitchell promised that "the US will sustain an active commitment to reaching the goal of the two states living side by side in peace and security." "The decision by President Obama to dispatch me to come to this region less than one week after his inauguration is clear and tangible evidence of this commitment," Mitchell said in Cairo. Olmert, however, said Israel would open Gaza's borders -- which it has kept sealed to all but essential humanitarian goods since the Islamists seized power there in June 2007 -- if militants released a soldier they snatched in June 2006. "A permanent opening of the crossings will be linked to solving the issue of Gilad Shalit," a senior Israeli official quoted Olmert as telling the envoy. Mitchell's visit to the region came amid the deadliest flare-up of violence around Gaza since the January 18 end of Israel's blistering 22-day war on the Islamists' stronghold. Palestinian militants killed an Israeli soldier in a bomb blast near the border on Tuesday and Israel retaliated with gunfire that left one man dead, an air strike that wounded three and bombing raids on border smuggling tunnels. On Wednesday, Hamas said it fired mortars at an Israeli force carrying out a limited incursion in central Gaza. The army had no immediate comment. An Israeli warplane bombed early Thursday an area of the Gaza Strip border known to contain smuggling tunnels to Egypt, witnesses and the Israeli military said, after a rocket was fired into southern Israel on Wednesday evening. Senior Israeli officials, campaigning for the February 10 parliamentary election that the right-wing opposition is widely expected to win, vowed that the Jewish state would strike back hard. Defence Minister Ehud Barak cancelled his planned departure to the United States on Wednesday because of the violence, a ministry official said. Hamas called on Obama to correct the "mistakes" of his predecessor George W. Bush and alluded to the new president's pledge to reach out to the Muslim world. "Palestine is the door to the Muslim world," Ismail Haniya wrote in a letter to Obama posted on a Hamas website. "Justice and freedom for Palestinians is the key that will open this door." After talks with senior Israeli politicians and intelligence officials, Mitchell was to head to Ramallah in the occupied West Bank on Thursday for talks with Palestinian president Mahmud Abbas. Abbas hit out at Israel ahead of the meeting. "Today we are convinced more than ever, especially after the aggression against Gaza, that Israel does not want peace and we are going to say so to all those who come to see us," he told reporters on Tuesday. Abbas and Olmert relaunched peace talks to great fanfare in November 2007 after a near seven-year hiatus, but the negotiations have made next to no progress. He said his Palestinian Authority planned to go to the International Criminal Court over Israel's "atrocious crimes" in Gaza against the Palestinian people and also lashed out at his rivals in Hamas. The Islamists, who kicked pro-Abbas forces out of Gaza in June 2007, had "dragged an entire people" to war by refusing to renew an Egyptian-brokered six-month truce with Israel in December, Abbas said.
