Fresh exchanges of fire in Israel-Gaza violence
Palestinian militants fire more rockets as Israel destroys another tower block in Gaza
Palestinian militants have fired more waves of rockets towards Israeli cities as Israel destroyed another high-rise tower in Gaza City and killed top commanders in the military wing of Hamas. We hear from Gaza City and from Lod, an Israeli city with a mixed Jewish and Arab population where violent protests have erupted.
