The Hamas-run health ministry in Gaza claims that a second Israeli bombing raid in two days killed and wounded "dozens" at the Jabaliya refugee camp. The ministry also alleges that seven hostages taken from its attacks inside Israel were killed in Israel's first bombing of the camp. Israel says that 240 hostages were taken when Hamas fighters crossed the border to stage raids in which they killed 1,400 people. The Israeli military says that the latest strike targeted a top Hamas commander and many Hamas terrorists were killed. Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has said freeing the hostages is a priority.
