Palestinians are fleeing their homes as attacks between Israel and Palestine intensify.

Families in north Gaza escaped collapsed buildings and bombed out homes.

Hundreds have fled to UN-run schools, according to the UN refugee agency.

Israel says airstrikes are being launched against Hamas and other militants and will continue to use force "if needed."

Three rockets have also been fired toward Israel from Syria but there are no reports of any damage, according to the Israeli army.
