Israel unleashed a barrage of airstrikes across Gaza on Saturday, killing dozens of people and sending hundreds of wounded to overwhelmed hospitals, according to health authorities in the territory. The attacks came a day after the United States vetoed a U.N. Security Council resolution calling for an immediate cease-fire.
Some of the strikes targeted the southern Gaza Strip, where the Israeli military has ordered civilians to go to avoid bombardment, underscoring the reality that there is no safe place in Gaza to take shelter.
Videos published by Reuters from the southern city of Khan Younis showed buildings engulfed in flames after an Israeli strike. Local media reports showed videos of rescuers and civilians digging people from rubble with their hands by the light of flashlights and cellphones. Other images showed patients being treated on bloody hospital floors.

The media is doing such an inappropriate job covering the conflict. Children are being murdered and all the media does is vilify palastinians. Yes, isreali people are suffering, but the isreali military's actions are unacceptable.
