But it's been starting to fade in recent days, and today was the worst day yet.
And this evening, we've been hearing these conflicting reports about whether Israel plans to continue or suspend aid going into Gaza.
Hamas militants fired rocket-propelled grenades and directed sniper fire at Israeli troops in southern Gaza, outside the town of Rafah.
This is according to an Israeli military official speaking on condition of anonymity.
Israel responded with airstrikes, according to Israeli and Arab media reports.
Both Israel and Hamas have accused each other of ceasefire violations since the truce came into effect October 10.
However, this appeared to be the most serious clash so far.
Israeli troops still control just over half of Gaza's territory, though they're mostly in open areas outside cities and towns.

Israel handed over the remains of 45 Palestinians that were delivered to a medical complex in southern Gaza.
Late at night, Hamas gave Israel four more bodies of dead hostages, bringing the total to eight in the past two days.
Under the ceasefire deal, Hamas is supposed to return all 28 dead hostages, and Israel will return several hundred Palestinian bodies.
Hamas says it needs more time to locate all the Israeli bodies due to the heavy fighting.
