translated from Spanish: Israel bombs another tower in Gaza, headquarters of AP news agency and Al Jazeera

Israel today demolished a 14-storey tower in Gaza City, home of US news agency AP, Al Jazeera news network and other international media outlets. The occupants received an eviction order before the attack. It is the fifth high tower that Israeli aviation bombs in the current war escalation with Gaza militias.The collapse of the Al Jalaa tower was captured live by multiple international television networks, even those that until today broadcast from there. According to the Israeli Army, the building “contained military assets belonging to military intelligence” of the Islamist movement Hamas.An Israeli military spokesman added that Hamas chose that building to house its assets precisely because of the presence there of media, which he said are “used as human shields” of the group. This incident took place shortly after Gaza’s Palestinian militias launched a burst of rockets into Tel Aviv, most of which were intercepted although one of them hit nearby Ramat Gan, where a 55-year-old man was killed and 13 people were injured. These attacks were just two of the multiples recorded on Saturday, including numerous rocket fires at Israeli communities near Gaza and several Israeli bombings on what they described as Hamas military targets.These episodes raised the number of Palestinians killed in Gaza to at least 140 since the start of this war escalation on Monday. , including 40 children, and who add up to the 1,000 injured registered so far. In Israel, on the other hand, there are 10 fatalities, eight of them from rocket impact and two who died from falls while running to protect themselves in anti-aircraft shelters. The number of wounded in Israel so far exceeded 250 today.All this takes place while U.S. State Department Deputy Secretary for Palestinian and Israeli Affairs Hady Amr is in the region to try to mediate between the parties, following this week’s visit by Egyptian delegations, who failed to manage a ceasefire during their meetings in both Gaza and Tel Aviv.
