Cry in vain

, July 20, 2014

Palestinians evacuate a crying woman following an Israeli air strike on a house in Rafah in the southern Gaza Strip on July 20. At least 50 Palestinians were killed on Sunday by Israeli shelling of the Gaza neighbourhood of Shejaia, witnesses and health officials said. The mass casualties in the Shejaia district in northeast Gaza were the heaviest since Israel launched its offensive on the Palestinian territory on July 8 after cross-border rocket strikes by militants intensified. Militants kept up their rocket fire on Israel, with no sign of a diplomatic breakthrough toward a ceasefire in sight. Reuters/Ibraheem Abu Mustafa
