▶️ Hundreds of Palestinian mourners participated in a funeral procession on Thursday, November 14, for eight members of a Gaza family who were killed by an Israeli missile strike. It was the deadliest incident in the latest conflict between Israel and Palestinian militant group Islamic Jihad, shortly before a truce took hold.
👉 Palestinian residents and medical officials said all eight of the people killed were civilians. But Israeli military spokesman Lieutenant-Colonel Avichay Adraee said the head of the family, Rasmi Abu Malhous, who was among the dead, was the commander of Islamic Jihad rocket crews in the central Gaza Strip.
Hours after the incident, under Egyptian mediation, the Islamic Jihad group and Israel declared a halt to the hostilities across the Gaza Strip border that killed 34 Palestinians, nearly half of them civilians, but a lasting ceasefire appeared tenuous as they differed on terms.
