Violence continues in Gaza
Today is the third day of Israel’s offensive in the Gaza Strip in response to regular rocket attacks by Hamas. According to the Associate Press, more than 300 Palestinians are dead and more than 700 injured. The U.N. Security Council called on Israel and the Palestinians to immediately halt all violence and military activities. For the latest on the situation in Gaza we turn to Taghreed El-Khodary, who is reporting from Gaza for our partner the New York Times.
