Editor's note: This story is being updated and amended as more details about those killed by the air strikes and rocket attacks emerge. 

After the worst fighting seen in Gaza since the war in 2014, at least 25 Palestinians, including two pregnant women and a 14-month-old baby girl, have been killed in the past three days, while four Israelis were killed by rocket fire from Gaza.

The violence started on Friday when the Israeli military and the militant group Islamic Jihad traded fire. Over the next two days, hundreds of rockets were launched into Israel from Gaza with the Israeli military pounding the besieged enclave with air strikes and artillery.

The fierce back and forth threatened to spill over into an all-out, protracted war, but by early Monday, a ceasefire was reached between Israel and Palestinian factions.

Those killed included one of the best English teachers in Gaza, two fathers of four - one an Israeli and the other a Palestinian, a man riding his bike and another at work, and a 12-year-old at home with his parents.
