Israeli strikes on Gaza have come at a pace of one strike on the Hamas-ruled Strip every 4.5 minutes since the start of Operation Protective Edge on Monday, according to the army’s figures.

Israel has hit some 1,090 targets in three-and-a-half days, the Israel Defense Forces says.

Palestinian reports count some 90 dead in the coastal territory from the strikes, a figure that includes both civilians and fighters.
