Speaking at the start of his cabinet meeting in Jerusalem Netanyahu added that any Israeli action in Gaza is reported to Washington. Hamas in its statement said the United States was not doing enough to keep Israel in line with the ceasefire agreement.
The Israeli military said on Saturday that its troops were attacked by fighters in areas of Gaza where its forces are still deployed as part of the U.S.-backed ceasefire agreement.
An Israeli airstrike killed a Palestinian man in the Gaza Strip on Sunday, health authorities said, as Israel and Hamas traded blame for daily violations of a tenuous truce that has largely halted two years of devastating war.
The Israeli military said its aircraft struck a fighter posing a threat to its forces.
Al-Ahli Hospital said one man was killed in the airstrike near a vegetable market in Shejaia suburb in Gaza City.
Hamas did not immediately respond to a request for comment. In a separate statement it listed a series of what it said were Israeli violations of the ceasefire agreed in October, including the killing of more than 200 people.
At least 236 Palestinians, most of them civilians, have been killed in Israeli strikes since the ceasefire took effect according to the Palestinian health ministry.
Three Israeli soldiers have been killed by Palestinian gunmen in this time, according to the military, which says its strikes have targeted dozens of Gaza fighters.
