At least 15 people have been killed and 160 wounded in an Israeli strike that hit a market near Gaza City, Palestinian officials say.
The explosion hit a busy fruit and vegetable market in Shejaiya, east of Gaza City, where hundreds of Palestinians were shopping, a spokesman for the Gaza health ministry said.
The attack came during a four-hour truce called by the Israeli military.

GAZA/OCCUPIED JERUSALEM: Israeli strikes near a market in the eastern Gaza Strip killed 17 Palestinians and wounded more than 200 Wednesday, the local health ministry said.
Residents said that Israeli shelling and two missiles from the air hit the area in Shejaiya, on the fringes of the city of Gaza. An Israeli military spokeswoman said she was checking the report.

This report is according to Palestinian officials.
For all we know, it could have been yet another errant rocket fired by Hamas that landed in Gaza.
I'll wait for an official response from the IDF.

And some people say it's not the genocide. It is what it is.
The slaughter of innocents again and again ...
I fear the world will not step up, the coward heads of states are the coward Zionists slaves.
In a moment you'll have the usual heartless drones saying it's Hamas fault..

If the world was so scared of Israel as you and others make them out to be, and Israel really wanted the genocide of the Palestenian people, Israel is fully capable of doing this in a matter of hours if not minutes.....and wiping Palestine off the map....
So this throwing around the term of genocide is a bit ridiculous......
If they hate the muslims so much, then why do the majority live within Israel in peace with the rest of the populace?
Enough
What's going on in Gaza is an affront to humanity and needs
to be stopped.

There is a difference between the word extermination and genocide. This is clearly a genocide, no if or buts.
And yes, the zionist ideology is mainly racist and discriminatory.
You honestly don't see the similarities between the Zionists regime and the NAZI regime ?

CNN has reported that Hamas violated the humanitarian cease fire that was supposed to be in effect for four hours earlier today. Hamas militants took advantage of the window of opportunity and fired more rockets into Israel from within close proximity of the market. The IDF responded with retaliatory air strikes targeting missile launchers.
The loss of civilian life is tragic. However, Hamas continues to provoke a military response and deliberately put Palestinian civilians in danger.

This.
There is no chance this was an intentional strike on civilians by the IDF. If it wasn't another errant Hamas rocket, similar to the incidents that took place with a hospital and UN shelter a couple of days ago, there has to be a reasonable explanation.
In October 2010 five children and three women were injured after a Qassam rocket training site exploded near a crowded residential area of Tel As-Sultan in Rafah.
In 2006, the Israeli Ministry of Defense viewed the Qassams as "more a psychological than physical threat."
