The father of six-month-old Mohammed Bourai carries his dead son to his funeral in Gaza City on February 28, 2008, following his death in an Israeli airstrike on a building housing the Hamas-run government's interior ministry. Israel today pounded the Hamas-run Gaza Strip, killing five, as Prime Minister Ehud Olmert vowed to make the Islamists Hamas pay a heavy price for rocket attacks on Israel.
