JAKARTA - Israel fired artillery and launched extensive airstrikes (Red) Friday, May 14, into a network of Palestinian militant tunnels under Gaza dubbed the 'Metro.'

An Israeli military spokesman said, meanwhile, Israeli ground forces had taken part in the tunnel 40 minutes before the dawn raid. No one crossed into the Gaza Strip on the fifth day of the conflict with the Palestinians.

Health officials in Northern Gaza, reported by Reuters this evening, said a woman and her three children were killed during an Israeli operation and their bodies were found around the rubble of their home.

The most serious fighting between Israel and Gaza militants since 2014 began on Monday, May 10, after the ruling group in hamas' pockets fired rockets into Jerusalem and Tel Aviv.

The shooting was in retaliation for Israeli police clashes with Palestinians near the Al-Aqsa mosque in Jerusalem.

"At least 119 people have been killed in Gaza, including 31 children and 19 women, and another 830 injured in the current hostilities," palestinian medical officials said.

Israeli authorities say the death toll in Israel stands at eight. In details, a soldier patrolling the Gaza border, six Israeli civilians - including an elderly woman who fell on her way to a shelter on Friday and two children - and an Indian worker.

In the northern and eastern parts of Gaza, the sound of artillery fire and explosions echoed on Friday morning. Eyewitnesses said many families living near the border left their homes, some seeking refuge in United Nations-run schools.
