France's Fabius blasts Palestinian deaths as unacceptable
French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius on Tuesday blasted as unacceptable the number of Palestinian casualties as Israel continued its bloody offensive on Gaza.
"It's unacceptable that a country be threatened by rockets, but the response has to be proportionate. 600 deaths is obviously something that we cannot accept," he said in a televised interview, as the Palestinian death toll rose to more than 620 on the 15th day of a conflict that has also killed 29 Israelis.

Israel says no reason to cancel flights after rocket fire
Israel said there was no reason to cancel flights after a rocket fired from Gaza crashed just kilometers from its main airport Tuesday, prompting some airlines to suspend services.
"Transport Minister Yisrael Katz this evening called American companies to explain to them that the take-off and landing at (Tel Aviv's) Ben Gurion airport presented no security problem for the aircraft and the passengers," the Civil Aviation Authority said in a statement, adding "there is no reason for American companies to cancel their flights."
European safety agency to recommend airlines avoid Tel Aviv
Europe's air safety watchdog said Tuesday it would recommend that all European airlines avoid Tel Aviv after a rocket fired from Gaza struck near the city's international airport.
The European Aviation Safety Agency told AFP it would issue a "strong recommendation to avoid until further notice Tel Aviv Ben Gurion International Airport."

The European Aviation Safety Agency told AFP it would issue a "strong recommendation to avoid until further notice Tel Aviv Ben Gurion International Airport."
Major European carriers followed their US counterparts on Tuesday and suspended flights to Israel over security concerns amid the raging Gaza conflict.
Air France said it was suspending service to Ben Gurion International Airport until further notice while Germany's Lufthansa said it was halting flights for 36 hours.
Lufthansa said the step, which also affects its subsidiaries Austrian Airlines, Germanwings and Swiss, was being taken "for the security of passengers and crew" amid the "unstable situation."
The German carrier said it operated up to 10 daily flights to Tel Aviv from Berlin, Frankfurt, Munich, Vienna and Zurich.
Affected passengers could choose to either be reimbursed or could exchange their tickets, it said.
Air France said the move would affect its three daily flights to Tel Aviv from Paris's Charles de Gaulle airport, as well as the three flights per week from the southern port city of Marseille and four flights per week from Nice.
Brussels Airlines cancelled one flight late on Tuesday and three flights on Wednesday.
Earlier Delta announced that it had diverted a flight bound for Tel Aviv to Paris after "reports of a rocket or associated debris near the airport in Tel Aviv."
Other major US carriers US Airways and United Airlines said they were also cancelling service to Ben Gurion.
International Flights Suspended, "Security Concerns"
Media reports are now surfacing to declare that, upon talks between political officials and UN chief Ban Ki-moon -- who asserted his "hope and belief" that an end to the conflict in Gaza could be "very near" -- international airlines have ceased flights to and from Israel indefinitely, citing security concerns.
According to British national daily newspaper, The Guardian, Delta was the first carrier to halt flights, diverting the path of 273 travelers enroute to Paris through Ben Gurion airport, following "reports of a rocket or associated debris near the airport in Tel Aviv".
Other major US carriers, including US Airways and United Airlines, have also said they were cancelling service to Tel Aviv.
Major European carriers followed their US counterparts as well, on Tuesday, Ma'an stated, suspending all flights to Israel, due to the chaos and internal unrest now engulfing the region.
Air France, Brussels Airlines and Lufthansa (to include Lufthansa subsidiaries Austrian Airlines, Germanwings and Swiss) have all been reported to be cancelling or diverting flights flights through Israel.
Lufthansa stated that affected tickets could either be reimbursed or exchanged.

The numbers of child fatalities grew rapidly as Israel continued its ground attacks on the Gaza Strip, with day three of the invasion, Sunday, July 20, proving the deadliest yet. In Khan Younis, 19 children from the same family were killed when bombs from an Israeli aircraft destroyed their home. A further three children across Gaza lost their lives on the same day. The total number of confirmed child deaths now stands at 95, with a further 65 cases being investigated by DCI-Palestine.
Dina Rushdi Omar Hamada, 16, died when her house in Gaza City was targeted by a drone missile.
In the southern Gaza town of Rafah, 16-year-old Anas Mahmoud Hussein Muammar was targeted by a drone missile as he sat with his brothers on the balcony of their apartment, drinking coffee. He was pronounced dead in hospital after sustaining critical injuries.
At Al-Bureij refugee camp in central Gaza, 12-year-old Shaaban Jamil Shaaban Zeyadeh was killed along with six of his family members as they tried to evacuate their home, which was bombed in an airstrike.
The names of the children from the Abu Jami’ family in Khan Younis, ages ranging from 4 months to 14 years old, are listed below. All were sheltering in their four-storey house when the strike occurred without warning.

Israeli officials stated that the intended target was a Hamas member who was visiting the house at the time of the strike, but human rights groups have called the massacre and similar strikes a “grave violation of international humanitarian law.”
Israel is obligated to act in accordance with international humanitarian law, which expressly states that only military objectives can be lawful or legitimate objects of an attack. In order to qualify as a military objective, the object must be used for a military purpose and its total or partial destruction would result in a definite military advantage.
While civilians, including children, must never be targeted, and civilian structures and infrastructure are presumed not to be legitimate targets, Israel continues to carry out direct attacks on civilian homes.
Based on a preliminary investigation, Israeli forces unlawfully targeted the Abu Jami’ family home as it was not being used for any military purpose at the time of the attack. The mere alleged presence of a member of a Palestinian armed group is an insufficient justification for an attack on the Abu Jami’ family home.
The conduct of Israeli forces during the military offensive, including targeting civilian homes, knowingly or recklessly killing civilians, and the failure to direct attacks at military targets constitutes war crimes under international law.
Responding to the Palestinian death toll, now numbering over 600 of which the greater part are civilians, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu accused Hamas of using “telegenically dead Palestinians for their cause.” The Israeli death toll stands at 27 soldiers and two civilians.

A United Nations school sheltering displaced Palestinians in central Gaza came under Israeli fire on Tuesday as a team was inspecting damage from a day earlier, a UN official said.
The official said a team, with Israeli clearance, was at the school run by the UN agency for Palestinian refugees UNRWA in Al-Maghazi when Israeli tank shelling resumed, hitting the building on Tuesday afternoon.
"Yesterday we got reports that it was shelled and so today we sent our guys down to investigate and see which side the fire came from," the official said, speaking to AFP on condition of anonymity.
"They went down there with Israeli clearance, and while they were there, they came under Israeli shelling," he added.
He said that there were holes blown through the walls of the school compound and that the gates had been blown off but no one was injured in the shelling.
The school has been evacuated and UNRWA has submitted a formal letter about the shelling to Israel, he added.
UNRWA is sheltering more than 100,000 people at more than 60 of its schools throughout the Gaza Strip.
Many Palestinians living in border areas of Gaza have been warned by Israel to flee their homes, but they say they feel nowhere in the coastal enclave is safe for them.
On Thursday, UNRWA said it was investigating after finding 20 rockets hidden in one of its vacant schools.
It condemned the incident as a "flagrant violation" of international law and said the rockets had been removed and the "relative parties" informed.
It said the incident was the first of its kind.

Israel has destroyed or severely damaged over 50 mosques since its assault on Gaza began, a Hamas official said Tuesday.
Undersecretary of the Ministry of Endowments in Gaza, Hassan al-Saifi, said over 50 mosques have been targeted.
Israel does not distinguish between targeting militants, civilians, hospitals, mosques, and cemeteries, al-Saifi told Ma'an, adding that he is afraid that schools may be targeted in the coming days.
"People are buried in mass graves or in used family graves," he said, adding that hospital morgues can no longer accommodate the growing number of casualties.
Cemeteries are nearly impossible to reach due to heightened insecurity, he said.

A Palestinian couple from Shajaiyeh decided to leave their home several days ago and bring their family to central Gaza City, thinking it would be a safer place.
However, four sisters from the family were killed when their grandparents' home where they were taking refuge was hit by Israeli artillery shells.
"They fled the shelling in Shujaiyeh neighborhood, to their grandfather's house in Thalathini, but shells followed them there," the bereaved father said.
"My daughters were playing on the roof of their grandfather's house when I was telling my wife on the phone that we should go back home," father Yasser al-Qassas said.
The call ended all of a sudden, he said. "When I redialed there was no answer."
"I telephoned one of my wife's brothers and he didn't answer either. A cousin of mine then answered my call to say that my daughters had been killed."
"The blood of my four daughters and all members of al-Qassas family were sacrifices for Palestine," he added.
Nine members of the al-Qassas family were killed on Monday in Israeli shelling.
Tens of thousands of Palestinians have fled their homes following heavy Israeli attacks.
