The three-day Israeli assault on the Gaza Strip that began Aug. 5 and ended with an Egyptian-brokered cease-fire Aug. 7 has killed four women and 15 children, according to the Palestinian Ministry of Health. Out of the 235 wounded, 151 are children and 56 are women.
The war between Israel and Islamic Jihad was different this time, with a markedly large number of women and children killed and injured.
