US envoy arrives in Israel

Palestinian officials in Gaza say seven people from two families were killed in an Israeli air strike which hit a densely-packed refugee camp, as the conflict entered its sixth day. The US envoy, Hady Amr, has arrived in Tel Aviv to meet with Israeli and Palestinian leaders, and try to end the fighting.
