Israel's Netanyahu vows to intensify attacks on blockaded Gaza as Israeli strikes kill at least 30 people, including 10 children, in an escalation of tensions sparked by Israeli aggression in occupied Jerusalem
Smoke billows from Israeli air strikes in Gaza, controlled by the Palestinian Hamas movement, on May 11, 2021.
The renewed Israeli aggression comes on top of the military raids in Jerusalem and across the occupied West Bank in which 700 unarmed Palestinians have been wounded in the past 24 hours. The Israeli army announced the launch of Operation Guardian of the Walls late on Monday against Gaza, the heavily controlled Palestinian area where food and medicines can enter only after Israeli permission.
Israel said on Tuesday two women were killed from the rocket attacks in southern city of Ashkelon, the first Israeli deaths in the current fighting.
