Seventeen Palestinians, including five women and six children were killed Wednesday in a series of Israeli airstrikes on Gaza, raising the death toll to bringing the death toll to 38 since the launch of the Israeli aggression on Monday at midnight, according to the Palestinian emergency services.
The airstrikes also left over 300 Palestinians injured in two days, said the emergency services spokesman Ashraf al-Qudra, quoted by AFP.

The Israeli missiles also killed two men near the Nusseirat refugee camp.
Twenty-one Palestinians were killed on Tuesday.
