APAwire - APAwire CLIENTS ONLY, Gaza - 20 May 2021. A Palestinian woman holds a one-day-old baby born in a United Nations school where many displaced Palestinian families have sought refuge in Gaza City amid air strikes and bombardment by Israeli forces

STORYLINE

The baby was named after Mohammed Deif, the leader of the military wing of Palestinian Islamist group Hamas.

Israel and the Palestinians are mired in their worst conflict in years as Israel pounds the Gaza Strip with air strikes and artillery, while Hamas militants fire rockets into the Jewish state.

Tensions started in Jerusalem last month and further escalated on May 10 when hundreds of Palestinians were injured in clashes with Israeli police in the Al-Aqsa Mosque Compound.

Deadly violence erupted across the West Bank amid a massive aerial bombardment in Gaza and unprecedented unrest among Arabs and Jews inside the country.

  1. 232 people in the besieged Palestinian enclave were killed, including 65 children and 39 women according to the Palestinian Health Ministry
