Israeli airstrike kills more than 100 people in central Gaza refugee camp

William Brangham:

There is grief and pain, shock and disbelief, tears and heartache. At the Al-Aqsa Hospital, their loved ones arrive in body bags, one after the other. Their loss is crippling, a father mourning his child and a son struggling to let go of his father.

As Gazans prayed for their dead, Egyptian officials reportedly proposed an initial plan to the end war. It includes a cease-fire, a phased release of all hostages, and the creation of a loosely defined Palestinian government of appointed experts. Hamas and its allied militant group, the Islamic Jihad, rejected the proposal of relinquishing control of the Gaza Strip, according to reports.

And Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who was heckled by families of hostages, vowed to continue the war.
