Medics say 660 Palestinians, including 215 children and 98 women, have been killed in the ‘Israeli' onslaught on the Gaza Strip.

Gaza emergency services chief, Moawiya Hassanein, also said on Tuesday that more than 2,950 Gazans have been wounded during Israeli attacks on the impoverished region.

The toll includes 43 civilians who were killed and 100 wounded when ‘Israelis' struck a school in Jabaliya, northern Gaza, he added.

Earlier in the day, ‘Israeli' forces hit two UN-run schools, one of which was crowded with refugees, in the Gaza Strip.

'Israel' launched a massive military campaign on Gaza, one of the most densely-populated areas in the world on December 27.

As the result of ten days of uninterrupted fighting, the situation of Gaza civilians is "extreme and traumatic", said head of operations for the International Committee of the Red Cross, Pierre Kraehenbuehl.
