Gaza- Israeli warplanes continue to pound Hamas-ruled Gaza Strip on Sunday in unprecedented waves of air strikes, killing so far more than 300 people and wounding more than 1000. The UN Security Council early Sunday called for an immediate end to all military activitiesin the Gaza Strip and urged the parties to address the humanitarian crisis in the territory.
But no end to the war appears in sight.

Here are some photos that tell the story of the human tragedy that the Gaza people are facing today and it is bound to get a lot worse

i just believe in this

your life is just a stand of an honor where the destinies can be easly changed. so fight, because the hurricane will be between your hands. dont give up, because the abasement is just a ravage. hang onto your rights, because your rights will be your weapon whatever they tyrannize you, and keep moving on, because the victory will be you decision. point me to my grave, cause i'd die rathar than be a slave ! and if they have a notion to stop me, let them shot their best shot till they get my casket dropped ! but i wont give up !

Injured Gaza children in Belgium
Six seriously injured Palestinian children have been flown to Belgium from the war-torn Gaza Strip for treatment in Brussels hospitals.

The children were airlifted on a Belgian military plane, which brought them from El-Arish, an Egyptian town about 60km (37 miles) from Gaza.

Belgian media say the children's ages range from two and a half to 18 years.

Each child is accompanied by a parent. More than 200 Belgians have offered to accommodate the parents, reports say.

Belgian RTBF radio says Belgium is the first European country to receive Palestinian children injured in the current violence in Gaza.

Belgium's Le Soir newspaper says medics from the World Health Organization chose the children to be evacuated to Belgium from the war zone.

A Belgian foreign ministry spokesman, quoted by RTBF radio, said there might be more similar flights. "Belgium is ready to receive another few dozen children, if need be," Francois Delhaye said.
