    GAZA STRIP -- Air raid sirens sounding in the Eshkol Region on Wednesday afternoon turned out to be a false alarm. The 72-hour ceasefire appears to be holding for now. 

    Hamas is not only using mosques to launch attacks against Israelis. It has also used a church compound.​ Archbishop Alexios is Gaza's most prominent Christian leader. His decision to open his church to 2,000 Muslims escaping the war surprised many of Gaza's residents.

    "Islam is the rule of this place and whatever Hamas says we must obey or face consequences," Alexios explained.
