The death toll in the Gaza Strip rose to 560 on Monday, the health ministry in the Palestinian enclave said, as Israel pounded Hamas targets for the third consecutive day.
The Hamas-controlled ministry said "560 people were killed and another 2,900 injured" since Saturday's surprise dawn attack when Hamas militants stormed Israel under a barrage of rocket fire.
On the Israeli side at least 700 people have been killed, the majority slain by militants who entered Israel from Gaza by land, air and sea.
