Beit Lahia (Palestinian Territories) (AFP) – Palestinians mourn over the bodies of their loved ones killed in Israeli strikes, as negotiations take place in Qatar for the release of hostages still held in the war-battered territory. “The number of martyrs killed in the ongoing Israeli bombardment of the Gaza Strip since dawn today has risen to 80, including 59 in the northern Gaza Strip,” civil defence official Mohammed al-Mughayyir told AFP.
