A new Israeli war jets airstrike on western Gaza city killed on Wednesday four Palestinian children and wounded ten others while they were on the beach of Gaza, medics and witnesses said.
Ashraf al-Qedra, spokesman of Gaza health ministry, told reporters that four children were killed and six others wounded in an Israeli war jets strike on the beach of Gaza city.
He added that since early Wednesday, 16 Palestinians were killed and more than 20 wounded in the ongoing airstrikes on houses, empty lands and on the beach all over the Gaza Strip.
"Death toll in the Gaza Strip since the beginning of the Israeli aggression in July 8 climbed to 213 and more than 1,500 were injured," said al-Qedra, adding that more than 50 percent of the victims are children and women.
Earlier on Wednesday, the Islamic Hamas movement officially informed Egypt that it doesn't accept the Egyptian initiative of ceasefire between Gaza militants and Israel, a Hamas official said.
