Israeli Bombing Kills 17 in Shejaiya 
-------------------------------------


 
Another Israeli bombing on Wednesday killed 17 people near a market in
Shejaiya. The attack reportedly occurred despite Israel declaring a
four-hour humanitarian pause. Around 160 people were injured. A medic
said most of the slain victims died of head wounds.

Medic: "All the people who were targeted were hit in the head, with the
aim of killing them. We are talking about at least 100 wounded, and
we're talking about an indescribable massacre. And this is during the
four-hour truce that they announced."
