Gaza City, 22 Ramadan 1435/20 July 2014 (MINA) – Israeli occupation forces continue to target the besieged Gaza Strip from air and land, claiming more Palestinian lives across the besieged region.

Latest reports say fresh Israeli occupation airstrikes left over a dozen people dead on early hours of Saturday. A six-year-old child was among causalities caused by the ongoing Israeli offensive.

Sources say the death toll is rapidly rising as more bodies are being recovered from under the rubble, Press TV quoted by Mi’raj Islamic News Agency (MINA) as reporting, Sunday.

At least 334 people are confirmed dead and nearly 2,400 more injured since Tel Aviv unleashed its offensive 12 days ago.
