The Gaza Health Ministry today said that 732
Palestinians have been killed in the fighting,
including at least166 children.
More than 4,600 people have been wounded,
the health officials said.
It’s unclear how many of the dead were
civilians. The United Nations estimates that
more than 70% were.
The Israeli military said 230 militants have been
killed.
But on their other side, Three more Israeli
soldiers were killed on Wednesday, bringing the
total to 32 plus three civilians.
U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry was back in
Cairo, continuing his shuttle diplomacy to forge
a truce a day after meeting with Israeli and
Palestinian leaders as well as U.N. Secretary-
General Ban Ki-moon.
“Over the last few days Secretary Kerry has
beenengaged with the Israelis, Palestinians,
Egyptians, Europeans, the UN, the Arab League,
Qatar, Jordan , Turkey, and the UAE (United
Arab Emirates) to determine how to achieve an
end to the current violence and build a process
that can create a sustainable path forward,”
The diplomatic efforts to end the terror have
however proved aversive.
