At least six Palestinians have been killed by Israeli air strikes in Gaza, including two women, doctors say.

The Israeli strikes come hours after Islamist group Hamas said it had brokered a deal for Gaza's militant groups to stop firing on Israel.

On Thursday, members of its military wing hit an Israeli school bus with an anti-tank shell, injuring two people.

Friday's deaths raise to 10 the number of Palestinians killed since Thursday, amid the worst fighting since 2009.

Last night, Hamas - which governs the Gaza Strip - met with other militant factions and agreed to enforce a ceasefire if Israel also stopped firing.

However neither side seems to have stopped for long, says the BBC's Jon Donnison in Gaza City.

Sad sad state of affairs as usual.
 
They want a truce after they fired an anti tank missile at a school bus? Not to mention the 12 mortars they fired today
 
Firing at the bus in Israel was undoubtedly terrorism, but Israel's attack on civilians is equally so. Undoubtedly we'll hear the usual excuses about self defence, Palestinian leaders hiding amongst civilians and so on.

And his mate BOYAH had no problem with the filth that JK8 continued to spew. Is it just because he's of the same religion, or a case of any enemy of the west is a friends of his ?
 
Even without him the thread gets derailed.
What gives?

Which civilians were targeted specifically? I don't doubt civilians in Gaza have died because, as you say yourself, Hamas and the other associated terror groups operate deliberately from amongst civilians, but what's your basis for suggesting that the Israelis deliberately targeted civilians?

It's a topic that people feel very passionately about, on both sides of the issue. Emotions run high, sense goes out the window, and any chance at sensible discourse goes down like a lead balloon.
Which is a pity, because there's little chance of getting either side to see the others' point of view this way.

Stop looking for smiley semantics to draw up ridiculous conclusions.
