(13 Nov 2018) Hundreds of mourners on Tuesday took part in the funeral procession for Mohammad al-Tatar, a Palestinian civilian killed in an Israeli airstrike on the Gaza Strip. Gaza's health ministry said two Palestinians in their 20s were killed in separate airstrikes, raising the number killed since the Israeli offensive began on Monday to six, including four militants. At least 25 people have been wounded. Israel has hit more than 100 targets it says are linked to militants in Gaza, including a strike that destroyed the TV station of Hamas, the Islamic militant group that rules Gaza. Palestinian militants have launched hundreds of rockets and mortars from Gaza since the current round of violence began, with about 100 of them intercepted by Israel's Iron Dome defence system. A Palestinian labourer was killed in a militant rocket strike on a residential building in southern Israel. The cross-border attacks were triggered by a botched Israeli undercover raid into Hamas-ruled Gaza late on Sunday and mark the most serious escalation since an Israel-Hamas war in 2014..
