Heavy bombardment in southern Gaza with airstrikes every 10 minutes, according to Unicef official
Israeli tanks, armoured personnel carriers and bulldozers have entered the southern part of the Gaza Strip near Khan Younis, as an Israeli commander claimed the army had almost completed its mission in the north.
Israeli military vehicles were on the southern part of Salah al-Din road, which runs from the north to the south of the strip, “firing bullets and tank shells at cars and people trying to move through the area”, a witness, Moaz Mohammed, told the AFP news agency.
