Gaza death toll rises to 13
The bloodshed began at around 14:00 GMT on Wednesday when Israel killed Hamas military chief Ahmed Jaabari and his bodyguard, sparking a fierce bout of cross border fighting which continued into the night.
Six more people died during various strikes later on Wednesday, including two children, officials from the Hamas-run health ministry said as Gaza hospitals went on high alert.
Meanwhile, British Foreign Secretary William Hague has said that Hamas "bears principal responsibility" for the current crisis in Gaza, and that it should cease attacks against Israel immediately.
