Grief: Israeli soldiers of the Paratroopers Brigade mourn over the grave of Sgt. Bnaya Rubel during his funeral
As Israeli
airstrikes continued to pound Gaza on Monday, rescue workers near the southern
Gaza city of Khan Younis were digging out bodies from a home flattened in one
of the strikes overnight, said Ashraf al-Kidra, a Gaza health ministry
official.
Al-Kidra said the
Palestinian death toll from the two-week offensive stood at 508 as of Monday
morning, including 20 bodies that were found at the site in Khan Younis. Two
people were pulled alive from the rubble, he added.
Elsewhere in Gaza,
Israeli tanks opened fire on the home of the Siyam family west of Rafah in the
southern part of the strip, killing 10 people, including four young children
and a 9-month-old baby girl, al Kidra said.
