JERUSALEM-The military said Israeli military aircraft hit targets in the Gaza Strip on Monday in response to two rockets fired from Palestinian territory. The military said in a statement that fighter jets attacked Hamas' military targets, including sites where underground tunnels were dug, some of which extended to Israel. The air strike was not reported immediately. There are also no reports of injuries or injuries caused by rocket launches. It is not clear who launched the rocket. Hamas maintains an unofficial ceasefire with Israel, but Israel requires the group to be responsible for any fires caused by Gaza. At the same time, Hamas accused Israel of failing to fulfill its truce obligations, which included reducing the severe blockade of Palestinian enclaves and allowing large-scale infrastructure construction and job creation projects. Since the Islamic militant group seized power in coastal enclaves in 2007, Israel and Hamas have fought three wars. Although no major confrontation has occurred since 2014, cross-border conflicts and outbreaks have often occurred between the two sides. Although radical rocket attacks and Israeli retaliatory artillery and aerial strikes frequently occur, due to the coronavirus outbreak in both territories, such attacks have been largely suppressed in recent months.

Saskaņā ar Reuters aptaujāto ekonomistu teikto, Kanādas ekonomika saskarsies ar lieliem šķēršļiem 2021. gada pirmajā ceturksnī un pēc tam uzņems apgriezienus nākamajā ceturksnī. Viņš sacīja, ka Kanādas IKP gada laikā sasniegs pirmspandēmijas pieauguma līmeni. Lai gan ekonomiskā aktivitāte ir daļēji atguvusies no rekordlielā krituma (7.5% pirmajā ceturksnī un 38.1% otrajā ceturksnī), tā atkal tika skāra 2020. gada pirmajā pusē, jo koronavīrusa infekcijas uzliesmojuma atjaunošanās rezultātā tika ieviestas stingras ierobežošanas procedūras. No 11. līdz 18. janvārim Reuters vairāk nekā 40 ekonomistu veiktajā aptaujā tika prognozēts, ka ASV ekonomikas gada pieauguma temps 2020. gada trešajā ceturksnī sasniedza rekordaugstu līmeni 40,5%, bet ceturtajā ceturksnī tas pieauga par 3,8. %, samazinoties trešo gadu pēc kārtas.
