Israel kills more than a dozen Palestinians across Gaza
Smoke rises from explosions in Gaza today, as seen from Israel, which has renewed its invasion

ISRAELI strikes killed more than a dozen people in the Gaza Strip early today, as Israel sent more ground troops into the Palestinian territory to ramp up its offensive against Hamas.
