In pictures: The aftermath of Israel’s overnight bombardment of Gaza

Israel unleashed a deadly bombing campaign on Gaza overnight, which has levelled neighbourhoods and residential areas.

Bodies are still being pulled out from under the rubble this morning. 

Emergency workers in Gaza have pulled the bodies of 18 people from the rubble of two shattered houses in Khan Younis in southern Gaza, according to local Palestinian media.

Most of those dead are children and women. 

The International Committee of the Red Cross has warned that hospitals in Gaza are turning into “graveyards” after equipment stopped working due to the lack of power.

Here, we take a look at the aftermath of the bombardment.
