Mideast Israel Palestinians

Police and civilians inspect the damage at an apartment building in the Israeli port city of Ashdod, Saturday, Nov. 17, 2012, after it was hit by a missile fired by Palestinian militants from inside Gaza Strip overnight. Israel bombarded the Hamas-ruled Gaza Strip with nearly 200 airstrikes early Saturday, the military said, widening a blistering assault on Gaza rocket operations by militants to include the prime minister’s headquarters, a police compound and a vast network of smuggling tunnels.
