More Israeli raids on Gaza: 3 dead, including a five-year-old boy

New bloody day in Gaza with yet another Israeli raid that causes three deaths including a 5-year-old boy. Eighty victims since the start of the offensive. The airstrike hit the neighborhood of Zeitun, while in another raid a police station in Gaza was completely destroyed during the night. Israeli warships also bombarded the Strip at night.

UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon is "deeply saddened" by the massacre of the Aldalu family, due to the continuing clashes in the Gaza Strip, which saw the death of more than many people including women and children. In a statement released on the eve of a mission in the region, Ban also said he was concerned about the continued launch of rockets. "All this must stop", he says, urging the parties to cooperate with Egypt and other countries to reach an immediate ceasefire.
