Sharjah 24 – KUNA: At least 83 persons, including 17 children, have been killed since the start of the Israeli attacks on the Gaza Strip, Palestinian Ministry of Health said Thursday.

Up to 487 others have been wounded by the Israeli attacks on the Strip, the ministry's spokesman Ashraf al-Qedra added in a statement.

This came in the wake of a series of airstrikes launched by the Israeli aircraft on several areas in the Strip that destroyed a number of housing towers, facilities and properties, he noted.
