A woman who lives in Gaza explains the horrors of living under constant bombardment from Israeli forces.
The UN Security Council has called for an immediate ceasefire between Israel and Palestinian militants in Gaza after a bloody weekend that saw the casualties of the conflict pass 500, with over 80,000 people displaced.
At least 24 Palestinians were killed overnight as Israel launched a ground offensive in Gaza, with the initial aim of destroying the underground tunnels into the heavily populated area.
Thousands of Palestinians are fleeing northern Gaza after Israel warned that it planned to step up its campaign on the area in an attempt to stop the rockets being launched over the border into Israel.
Israeli forces have targeted 780 “Hamas targets” within Gaza since the beginning of Operation Defensive Edge, which has left at least 100 Palestinians dead and 675 people injured.
