An Israeli cabinet minister said Thursday that a truce in Gaza is unlikely 'in the coming days.'Yaakov Peri, now the science minister but formerly a security chief, said that even in the case of a humanitarian ceasefire, Israel would continue to attack the vast network of tunnels used by Hamas militants to transport weapons and supplies."Even if there is a humanitarian truce, we would continue tackling the tunnels," he said. "I can say authoritatively that two or three days will not be enough to finish tackling the tunnels." -
