Israeli Child Killed by Gaza Mortar as Cease-Fire Hopes Recede
A four-year-old Israeli boy was killed by a mortar fired from the Gaza Strip today, creating another impediment for Egyptian efforts to mediate a new truce in the conflict between Israel and Palestinian militants.
The child was killed by a shell that landed near a kindergarten in a community close to the Gaza border, the Israeli army said in a text message. He was only the fourth civilian casualty in Israel since the conflict began six weeks ago, with most Gaza rockets landing in open areas or intercepted by the Iron Dome antimissile system.
At least 2,090 Palestinians have died from Israeli fire since the fighting broke out, many of them women and children, according to Gaza health officials. Sixty-four Israeli soldiers have died in the fighting, the most since the 2006 war with Lebanon’s Hezbollah militia.
