Another 200 people were injured, according to spokesperson Mahmoud Basal, as reported by NBC News.
The Israeli military, under pressure from Gaza resistance groups, agreed to a ceasefire with Hamas yesterday, despite its initial objective of dismantling Hamas during the military campaign launched 15 months ago.
