Israeli warplanes have released heavy airstrikes at several locations of Gaza City. The airstrikes were bigger, on a broad area, and lasted longer than a series of airstrikes 24 hours earlier in which 42 Palestinians were killed. The earlier Israeli airstrikes flattened three buildings. That attack was the deadliest single attack within the latest round of violence between Israel ad the Hamas militant group that rules Gaza. In a brief statement, the Israel Defense Forces say only that ”IDF fighter jets are striking terror targets in the Gaza Strip.”
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu signaled the fourth war with Gaza’s Hamas rulers would rage on. In an interview, he said Israel’s attacks were continuing at ‘full-force’ and would ‘take time.’ Israel “wants to levy a big price” on the Hamas militant group, he said, edged by his defense minister and political rival, Benny Gantz, in a show of unity.

Hamas also pressed on, launching rockets from civilian areas in Gaza toward civilian areas in Israel. One slammed into a synagogue in the southern city of Ashkelon hours before evening services for the Jewish holiday of Shavuot, Israeli emergency services said. No injuries were reported. In the Israeli air assault early Sunday, families were buried under piles of cement rubble and twisted rebar. A yellow canary lay crushed on the ground. Shards of glass and debris-covered streets blocks away from the major downtown thoroughfare where the three buildings were hit over the course of five minutes around 1 a.m.
