ISRAELI air attacks on Gaza today left at least 19 Palestinians dead, local sources report.

The latest Israeli killing spree comes as the country’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu sends the head of Israel’s spy organisation to Qatar for talks to bring about a ceasefire in Gaza.

Eyewitnesses say Israeli attacks targeted at a school acting as a shelter in Zaynab al-Wazir killed eight Palestinians, including two children, and left scores injured.
