Child among eight killed by Israel on Gaza ‘ceasefire’ anniversary

A child was among eight people killed by Israeli air strikes in Gaza on the anniversary of last year's 'ceasefire', according to Gaza's Health Ministry.

The ministry also reported that at least 1,481 Palestinians have been killed in Israeli attacks since the 'ceasefire' was declared last year.

The Israeli military said it was responding to rocket fire from Gaza, while Palestinian officials accused Israel of using excessive force.
