Israel’s interior minister has publicly vowed to “send Gaza back to the Middle Ages” as the aerial and naval bombardment of the besieged enclave, as well as the Palestinian rocket barrage against Israel, continued into Sunday.
–
“The goal of the operation is to send Gaza back to the Middle Ages,” Israeli Interior Minister Eli Yishai, a member of the ultra-orthodox Shas party, said, according to the leading Israeli daily Haaretz. “Only then will Israel be calm for 40 years.”

The Orthodox Jewish news site Yeshiva World News also quoted Yishai as saying, “We must blow Gaza back to the Middle Ages, destroying all the infrastructure including roads and water.”
–
There was no calm in Gaza as ‘Operation Pillar of Defense,’ Israel’s air and sea bombardment of the densely populated enclave, entered its fifth straight day on Sunday. Israel has carried out 950 air strikes targeting Palestinian militants who have launched more than 500 rockets into Israel during the course of hostilities.

Reuters reports that the Palestinian death toll stood at 47 going into Sunday morning. Around half of those deaths were civilians, including 12 children. Gaza health officials said that 385 Palestinians have been wounded.
–
Three Israeli civilians have been killed by Gaza-launched rockets. Another 63 Israelis have been wounded, the New York Times reports. Hostilities and tensions escalated on Saturday as Israeli forces bombed Hamas government buildings as well as the homes of Hamas Prime Minister Ismail Haniyeh and a leading Hamas military commander.

Israel also bombed two media centers. One building housing Hamas-run al-Quds TV was hit, wounding three employees. Al-Quds cameraman Khader al-Zahar had one of his legs blown off.
