The death toll continues to rise in the conflict between Israel and Hamas militants. An overnight Israeli air strike killed at least ten Palestinians in the deadliest single bombing so far. Israeli tanks have recently resumed firing on targets in Gaza City. This comes in response to hundreds of rockets fired by Hamas toward Israel last night, hitting residential areas. At least 126 people have been killed in Gaza since
Monday, while in Israel at least seven have died. The conflict has now also spread to the West Bank, the larger Palestinian territory. All throughout the day and into the night, explosions reverberated through Gaza City as Israel intensified its onslaught against Hamas.
As the conflict escalates, hour by hour, Gazans are fleeing their homes with whatever they can carry. Some have come to schools run by the UN in search of a safe place.
