The ongoing Israeli airstrikes on besieged Gaza strip killed 18 people so far including a pregnant woman, a 15-month-old child, and a Hamas commander even though the Israeli military said it has hit hundreds of targets in Gaza “belonging to Palestinian militant groups.”

The attacks drew criticism from international players.

Turkey’s President Tayyip Erdogan slammed the attacks calling them “Israeli terrorism” after the strikes destroyed the Turkish state media office in Gaza.

“We strongly condemn Israel’s attack against Anadolu agency’s office in Gaza,” he said on Twitter. “Turkey and Anadolu agency will continue to tell the world about Israeli terrorism and atrocities in Gaza and other parts of Palestine despite such attacks.”

Saeb Erekat, Secretary General of the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO), called on the international community to restore calm.

“We hold the Israeli government fully responsible for this aggression and call upon Egypt the UN and others in the international community to continue exerting every possible effort to restore calm,” Erakat said….

Fatmah Hjazi, 16 years old, was shot in the head by an Israeli sniper at Gaza yesterday. She was unarmed, simply holding a Palestinian flag, protesting against the inhuman Israeli siege.
