GAZA STRIP, Palestinian Territories: Israel on Friday revised down the death toll of last month’s Hamas attacks to about 1,200 as it pursued its assault on Gaza despite new calls for a halt to the bombing of civilians. Palestinians reported deadly strikes or sniper fire at two hospitals and a school. The Israeli army, which has agreed to some pauses in shelling to allow civilians to flee northern Gaza, has accused Palestinian militant group Hamas of using hospitals as command centers and hideouts. Hamas denies the accusations.

Doctors are battling to treat thousands of serious injuries despite severe shortages of medical resources, clean water and power.
