Israeli Military Attacks Gaza for 10th Consecutive Day
------------------------------------------------------

In the Gaza Strip, massive explosions tore through the city of Khan
Younis overnight, as Israel's military launched attacks for a 10th
consecutive day. The Israeli airstrikes came as Palestinians launched
rockets and incendiary balloons into southern Israel. Meanwhile, Gaza
officials are warning of disruptions at hospitals and other critical
facilities after Israel cut fuel supplies to Gaza's only power plant,
leaving residents with just a few hours of electricity per day.
