This dramatic video shows the moment that an apartment block in Gaza housing around 50 families was blown up by Israeli missiles.
The building, whose destruction was condemned by Palestine's Interior Ministry as "a dangerous escalation and continued collective punishment", had been home to Gaza's elite.
Israel alleged that the building, which was home to dozens of families, also housed an operations room for a Palestinian resistance, a claim denied by Palestinian officials.
22 people were injured in the attack, including 11 children and five women.
