IDF hits house of Hamas official, kills four

Israeli artillery shelling targeted the home of a senior Hamas official east of Gaza City and killed four people on Sunday, medics say, including two children and the son of a senior Hamas official.

The intense bombardment on Shejaiya killed the son of Khalil al-Hayya, a senior member of the Palestinian Islamist movement, as Israeli steps up its 13-day operation in Gaza.
