7 Palestinians killed, 25 injured in airstrike on southern Gaza
Seven Palestinians were killed and 25 were severely injured in an Israeli airstrike targeting a house in the southern Gaza Strip, bringing the death toll from Tuesday's airstrikes to 11, a health ministry spokesman said.

Ashraf al-Qidra told Ma'an seven Palestinians, among them two children under five years of age, were killed in an airstrike on Khan Younis.

Dozens of locals had gathered on the roof of the house after the family received a notice from Israeli authorities that it would be targeted, al-Qidra said.

The house belonged to the al-Kaware family.
Earlier, an Israeli airstrike on a vehicle in Gaza City killed three Palestinians.

Prior to the deaths in Gaza City, the body of Rashad Yassin, from al-Nuseirat refugee camp, was found under the rubble of a destroyed house in central Gaza.

Yassin is reportedly affiliated with Hamas' al-Qassam Brigades.

At least 75 Palestinians have been injured since late Monday in military action dubbed Operation Protective Edge, with Palestinian security sources putting the number of airstrikes at more than 70.

"Around 50 targets were hit, among them four houses belonging to militants, rocket launching sites and other terrorist infrastructure," an Israeli army spokesman said.

Dozens of sites were targeted in Beit Lahiya, Gaza City, and Khan Younis, with at least 13 injured in Gaza City.

Al-Qidra said 12 injured Palestinians had been taken to Kamal Adwan hospital in the northern Gaza Strip, six to al-Aqsa hospital in central Gaza, and another six to al-Shifa medical center.

Israel's army said 81 rockets had struck southern Israel on Monday, around a third of them during a short period in the evening.

The al-Quds Brigades, the military wing of the Islamic Jihad movement, took responsibility for launching 60 rockets into Israel on Tuesday.

The al-Nassar Salah al-Din Brigades, the military wing of the Popular Resistance Committees, said earlier it had responded to overnight airstrikes by firing five rockets at Eshkol and another 12 rockets elsewhere in southern Israel.

The National Resistance Brigades, the military wing of the Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine, said in a statement that it had launched three rockets into southern Israel.

4 killed in Israeli airstrike on car in Gaza City
An Israeli airstrike on a vehicle in Gaza City killed four Palestinians on Tuesday, bringing the total death toll in Israel's latest assault on the besieged enclave to five, medics said.

"Four people were killed in a Zionist strike on a civilian car in the Daraj neighbourhood in the centre of Gaza City," emergency services spokesman Ashraf al-Qidra told AFP.

Earlier, the body of Rashad Yassin, from al-Nuseirat refugee camp, was found under the rubble of a destroyed house in central Gaza.

‘Zionists pursuing Nazi-style genocide’

The Zionist regime of Israel is following in the footsteps of Hitler-era Nazis’ genocidal approach, an analyst writes for Press TV.

“Zionist racism, like Nazi racism, is virulent to the point of being genocidal…. Just as the Nazis dedicated themselves to building an ever-expanding Reich free of the taint of lesser races, the Zionists are likewise bent on ethnically cleansing an ever larger slice of Palestine,” Kevin Barrett wrote in a column for the Press TV website.

The analyst’s comment comes as more than 16 Palestinians, including two children, are reported to have been killed and 80 others injured in a fresh spate of air attacks by the Israeli regime on the besieged Gaza Strip on Tuesday.

Barrett said the Israeli regime’s continued air strikes against the Palestinians are reminiscent of “Nazi-style behavior.”

“Zionism and Nazism have something else in common: racial superiority,” he wrote. The analyst added that Nazis and Zionists both believe themselves a “master race” or “chosen people.”

“The Nazis looked down on Jews, gypsies, Slavs, Arabs and Africans in exactly the same way that Zionists look down on Arabs (and goyim in general) today,” wrote Barrett

He described the Zionists as “new Nazis” seeking to trigger a “total war” in the world.

The apartheid regime of Israel denies about 1.7 million people in Gaza their basic rights, such as freedom of movement, jobs that pay proper wages, and adequate healthcare and education.

Israel 'readies Gaza options, including ground assault'
Picture
The Israeli army is preparing all options for action in Gaza, including a ground assault, a senior official said on Tuesday.

"The army is preparing for all possible scenarios, including an invasion or a ground operation," the official told AFP, speaking on condition of anonymity.

Another official had earlier confirmed the army had received instructions "to prepare different military alternatives in order to be ready in case of need."

Earlier on Tuesday, the Israeli military announced the start of a new campaign called Operation Protective Edge aimed at stamping out rocket fire on southern Israel and destroying Hamas's military infrastructure.

Overnight, the air force and the navy struck more than 50 targets across Gaza, wounding 50 people, medics said, with air strikes continuing into the morning.

An air strike on the central Gaza Strip killed a Palestinian on Tuesday, an emergency services spokesman said.

Witnesses said he was a member of the armed wing of Hamas.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was expected to meet top military officials during the afternoon for a meeting at which he was expected to order a "significant broadening" of the operation and instruct the military to "take off the gloves," a source close to him told army radio.

1 killed, 30 injured in airstrikes on Gaza
Rashad Yassin

Israeli warplanes launched airstrikes on Gaza Tuesday, injuring at least 30, after hitting over 50 sites in the Strip overnight, an official said.

At least 30 Palestinians were injured in the series of airstrikes and the body of Rashad Yassin, from al-Nuseirat refugee camp, was found under the rubble of a destroyed house.

Ashraf al-Qidra, Gaza's health ministry spokesman, earlier told Ma'an that two people had been killed in the central Gaza Strip and rescue teams were searching for their bodies.
Yassin is reportedly affiliated with Hamas' al-Qassam Brigades.

Another man was injured when an Israeli missile struck a mosque in Khan Younis, witnesses said.

Al-Qidra said 12 injured Palestinians had been taken to Kamal Adwan hospital in the northern Gaza Strip, six to al-Aqsa hospital in central Gaza, and another six to al-Shifa medical center.

A house was destroyed by an airstrike on Beit Lahiya, al-Qidra said, while airstrikes hit three areas in Gaza City -- the al-Zaytouna neighborhood, the al-Shajaiya neighborhood, and an area near an Islamic center in the al-Sabra neighborhood.

Eight people were injured in the strike on al-Shajaiya and four men and one woman were hospitalized after being injured in the airstrike on al-Sabra.

Warplanes also targeted Beit Lahiya in northern Gaza, with no injuries immediately reported.

Airstrikes also hit the southern Gaza Strip, targeting a home belonging to resident Mahmoud al-Hashash, without causing injuries.

Israel's army said 81 rockets had struck southern Israel on Monday, around a third of them during a short period in the evening.

Early on Tuesday, another six hit the south, a spokesman told AFP.

Sirens sounded in 10 towns, including as far away as Beit Shemesh, 80 kilometers from the Gaza Strip, an army statement said.

Around 16 rockets struck around the southern city of Beersheba, 40 kilometers from Gaza and home to 200,000 people.

Gaza factions take responsibility for rockets

The al-Quds Brigades, the military wing of the Islamic Jihad movement, took responsibility for launching 60 rockets into Israel on Tuesday.

The Brigades said in a statement that it had targeted Beersheba, Ashkelon, and Netivot.

"It is our right to defend our people who are going through this battle alone without Arab or Islamic support," an Islamic Jihad spokesman told Ma'an.

"We are in the middle of the battle supporting our people ... and we are committed to protecting them," the spokesman said.

The al-Nassar Salah al-Din Brigades, the military wing of the Popular Resistance Committees, said earlier it had responded to overnight airstrikes by firing five rockets at Eshkol and another 12 rockets elsewhere in southern Israel.

The National Resistance Brigades, the military wing of the Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine, said in a statement that it had launched three rockets into southern Israel.
Strikes On Gaza Intensify, At Least 16 Injured
Picture
As the Israeli aggression on Gaza intensifies, Palestinian medical sources have reported that at least 16 Palestinians, including children, have been injured in different parts of the coastal region, as the Israeli army fired missiles into homes, and civilian structures.

Israeli sources said the offensive on Gaza would be “gradually escalated”, and could eventually be “turned into a comprehensive war”.

Media sources in Gaza said Israeli war jets initially fire a smaller missile into each home, in what Israel regards as a warning shot, although its directly 

hits the property, before another bigger missile, or missiles, hit the property again.

One home was completely destroyed after being hit by Israeli missiles, in Abasan town, east of Khan Younis, in the southern part of the Gaza Strip. Several injuries have been reported, and many nearby homes were damaged.

In Rafah, in southern Gaza, the army fired a missile into a home belonging to a member of the Hashshah family, causing several injuries and excessive damage.

Nine more Palestinians have been injured when the Israeli Air Force bombarded their homes in the al-Qarara town, northeast of Khan Younis. The army also fired “a smaller missile” before firing a larger missile that destroyed the property.

The nine wounded Palestinians have been moved to Nasser Hospital, in Khan Younis, suffering moderate injuries.

Two more Palestinians were seriously injured when the army bombarded Deir al-Balah, in central Gaza, and were moved to the al-Aqsa Hospital for treatment.

Missiles have also been fired into farmlands near Salah Ed-Deen Road, in Deir al-Balah, causing excessive damage to property, and a number of nearby homes.

In addition, F16 Israeli war jets fired missiles into an agricultural land, in the Tuffah neighborhood, northeast of Gaza city, causing injuries to two Palestinians in nearby homes.

Several missiles have been fired into different areas in the Gaza Strip, including Rafah that was struck with at least three missiles, causing several injuries and panic attacks among the Palestinians, including many children and infants.

Israeli missiles also struck farmlands in Beit Lahia, Shejaeyya area, while a number of homes have also been damaged in an Israeli air strike close to a local mosque in the Zeitoun neighborhood of Gaza.

Armed resistance groups in Gaza fired several shells into adjacent Israeli settlements, reportedly some even reaching Gush Etzion settlement bloc, south of the West Bank city of Bethlehem.

Shells were fired into settlements in the Negev, including areas in the Eshkol Regional Council of Settlements, She’ar HaNegev, Netivot, Bane Shimon and Merhavim.

Israel says its “Iron Dome” system intercepted some of the shells, and that one Israeli was injured. Most of the shells landed and detonated in open areas.

On Monday evening, Israeli sources said the Israeli government decided to refrain from invading Gaza, but would engage in extensive strikes reportedly “against Hamas and Palestinian fighters”, although the missiles and shells are largely hitting civilian homes.

More escalation is expected in the coming hours, especially in the evening, as Israeli military sources said 1500 reserve soldiers will be gradually deployed, and that the army intends to conduct a “gradual offensive that could eventually turn into a comprehensive and direct confrontation”.
Twelve Injured in Continued Israeli Air Strikes On Gaza
Picture
Palestinian medical sources have reported that twelve Palestinians have been injured, near Khan Younis, in ongoing Israeli air strikes targeting different parts of the coastal region.

The sources said the twelve Palestinians were injured when an Israeli missile struck a home in al-Qarara town, east of Khan Younis, in the southern part of the Gaza Strip.

They suffered mild-to-moderate injuries, and were moved to the Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis.

In addition, Israeli war jets fired missiles into an agricultural area in al-Waha area, west of Beit Lahia, in the northern part of the Gaza Strip.

Several missiles were also fired into the Safeena area, west of Gaza city, causing damage but no injuries.

Israeli Navy boats also fired many shells into the coast of Rafah, causing damage to several Palestinian fishing boats.

Late on Monday at night, Israeli war jets fired missiles into farmlands close to the Abraj an-Nada residential towers, in the northern part of the Gaza Strip. Also in northern Gaza, missiles were fired into farmlands in the Sudaniyya area.

Israeli missiles also targeted areas close to the Gaza International Airport that was repeatedly destroyed by Israeli army bulldozers, and repeatedly bombarded, during ongoing Israeli wars and aggression on the coastal region.

2 Israeli Airstrikes Hit Northern Gaza
Chris Carlson - IMEMC News. Tue, 08 Jul 2014 02:41:58

The Israeli air force, on Monday evening, has launched two airstrikes at Palestinian targets in the northern Gaza Strip, after a barrage of rockets reportedly landed in southern Israel.

The first strike targeted agricultural land in the al-Sudaniya area, northern Gaza, according to Ma'an. The second targeted agricultural land in the al-Safina area west of Gaza City.

Israel launches massive offensive in Gaza: “Operation Protective Edge”
Picture
After Israeli airstrikes Monday morning killed nine Palestinians in Gaza, the Israeli military stepped up the airstrikes on Gaza Tuesday morning, dropping more than 50 bombs on the besieged coastal Strip. Israeli officials announced that the airstrikes were just the first of many, in an operation they are calling “Protective Edge”.

The Israeli military has amassed a number of troops on the border. In the air strikes in the early hours of Tuesday morning, the Israeli Airforce bombed the homes of four Hamas leaders in Gaza.

The barrage of bombs on Gaza came just after U.S. President Barack Obama urged ‘restraint by both sides’. At least seventeen Palestinians were wounded in Tuesday’s attacks.

Israeli officials claimed that around seventy homemade shells were fired from the Gaza Strip toward southern Israel. These are crude shells that are little more than tubes with dynamite placed inside, which are fired blindly, without any possibility of aiming them. No injuries or damage were reported from the shells.

According to the Israeli daily Yediot Ahranoth, an unnamed Israeli official told the paper, "We are preparing for a long operation. Tonight the [army] attacked 50 targets in Gaza, three from the sea and the rest from the air."

The official reportedly said, “We increased the number of attacks and will continue to do so in the coming day. Hamas has entered this round with a handicap”, and that the Palestinian political party that runs the government in Gaza is in the “worst state it has been in years.”

The attacks on both nights came in the early morning hours when Palestinian Muslims in Gaza were waking for early breakfast before dawn, since this is the month of Ramadan in which Muslims around the world refrain from eating or drinking between sunrise and sunset. The month of Ramadan is usually a meditative and joyous period, in which Palestinians stay out in the streets late at night to greet family and friends. But the last week of Israeli settler and military violence has pushed many Palestinians to remain indoors, particularly at night.

The unnamed Israeli official that spoke to Yedioth Ahranoth claimed that the Israeli military used a tactic of dropping a small mortar on the roof of a home to “warn” the residents that it will be bombed, and then dropping a full-scale bomb a few minutes later.

In at least one instance, the Israeli official claimed that the military called the cell phone of the family they were targeting and told them to evacuate, bombing their home a few minutes after the phone call.

In the last major Israeli military operation in Gaza, Operation Cast Lead at the end of 2010, the Israeli military killed over 1400 people in about 3 weeks, an estimated 80% of whom were civilians. 14 Israelis were killed in the same time period, 9 of whom were soldiers.

Gaza Rockets Target Southern Israel, Israeli Army Claims

Lieberman breaks Likud ties, clashes continue across region

Dozens of rockets fired from the Gaza Strip have struck southern Israel, today, according to the Israel army. Residents in the occupied West Bank said three rockets landed in the illegal Gush Etzion settlement near Bethlehem, as well, though no immediate reports of injury or damage have surfaced. Clashes continue across Palestine, with escalating violence by soldiers and settlers.

Meanwhile, a Code Red siren was heard in the Hof Ashkelon regional council, according to Ma'an News Agency.

Nine Palestinians, six of whom were members of Hamas' al-Qassam Brigades, were killed in Israeli air strikes, during the night.

Earlier today, Israeli warplanes struck the northern Gaza Strip, injuring a young boy, according to medics. Agricultural areas in northern Jabaliya were also hit. One four-year-old boy has sustained moderate injuries. Additionally, another two strikes hit agricultural lands in eastern Jabaliya, causing property damage. Nearby Beit Lahiya was hit with two airstrikes, with no injuries reported. In the al-Shujayyia neighborhood of Gaza City, another strike occurred, with no injuries reported.

In related news, Ma'an further reports that Israeli Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman ended his 20-month party alliance with the ruling right-wing Likud.

At a press conference, the decision was announced following a dispute between Lieberman and PM Netanyahu over the Israeli government's handling of militant rocket fire in the Gaza Strip.

Lieberman has been pushing for a full reoccupation of the territory. His political faction will remain in government, and he has renewed his call for a major ground operation in Gaza.

The al-Nasser Saladin Brigades, Popular Resistance Committee's armed wing, has vowed to respond to the recent killings in region: "The enemy should bear the consequences of its ongoing crimes and aggressions."

Violent confrontations have been taking place, over the last few days, between Palestinian youth and the Israeli Occupation Forces all over historic Palestine, PNN reports.

Clashes have erupted in many Palestinian cities and towns accross the region, mostly between youth and Israeli police, who fired tear gas, stun grenades and rubber bullets during recent protests, during which 51 Palestinians were arrested in Nazareth and Akka.

According to the Palestinian Prisoners Society, the total number arrests in the 1948 territories amounts to 110 individuals, half of which are minors.

Clashes have erupted in different neighborhoods and towns of Jerusalem, where Israeli police also responded to protests with tear gas, causing numerous cases of suffocation. Rubber-coated metal bullets, stun grenades and live ammunition were also used to disprse the youngsters, who were throwing stones and, occasionally, fireworks at the police, according to the PNN.

Israeli settlers attacked three Palestinians, today in Jerusalem.

One worker, Mohammad Abu- Abed, age 42, from Yatta, was injured in his head and transferred to al-Makassed Hospital, in serious condition.

Israeli forces raided Al-Quds University, in Abu dis, where they clashed with youth and students. Tear gas was agains used on the protesters, many of whom suffered from suffocation as a result.

Similar clashes erupted in Nablus, as well, at the Hawara checkpoint. In Tulkarem, violent confrontations occured at the Gashory Factory, west of the city, where soldiers fired tear gas, rubber-coated bullets and live ammunition against Palestinians who threw stones at them.

Two Palestinians were transferred to the Rafedya Hospital in Nablus, with serious injuries: Samer al-Msyeai, 21, was shot in the foot with a live round and Aysar Raed Nasrallah, 17, from Tulkarem refugee camp, was shot in the pelvis, also with live ammunition.

Furthermore, in Jericho, clashes broke out at the main entrance of the city, where several Palestinians were injured with rubber bullets. In Bethlehem, hundreds of Israeli settlers raided the area of al-Ferdous, to the west of the city.

In the city's center, violent confrontations took place near to Rachel’s Tomb, where Israeli forces also fired tear gas, stun grenades, rubber and live bullets on protesters who met them with stones, small explosive devices and fireworks.

In Hebron, the PNN furhter reports that clashes erupted in the Old City and in the entrances of Beit Ummar and Yatta. Several Palestinians were injured with rubber-coated bullets and some suffered from tear gas inhalation.

One Hamad Ehmedan Salhab, age 22, was abducted by Israeli forces, after being shot the foot.
