Palestinians wheel the stretcher transporting the body of a man, who medics said was killed in Israeli air strikes on a house, at a hospital in Khan Younis in the southern Gaza Strip July 8, 2014. At least six Palestinians were killed and about 25 wounded in the Israeli attack on Tuesday on the house in the Gaza Strip, the Palestinian Interior Ministry said. Local residents said the dwelling belonged to the family of a Hamas member and that the casualties occurred when it came under attack for the second time on Tuesday. After the first strike, people had gathered on its roof as "human shields", hoping their presence would deter a second strike, the residents said. Photo by Ramadan El-Agha
