Israeli forces martyred over four hundred Palestinians during massive air-strikes in Gaza today.

The Israeli air force attacked targets in Gaza City, Rafah and Khan Younis in the early morning.

This is the largest air strikes in Gaza since ceasefire began on 19 January. Talks to extend Gaza ceasefire have failed to reach an agreement.                                

Meanwhile, in a statement, the U.N. Human Rights chief Volker Turk said Israel's resort to yet more military force will only heap further misery upon a Palestinian population.

Israel also halted aid deliveries into Gaza for over two weeks, exacerbating a humanitarian crisis.
