Israel escalates strikes on Jabalia

There has been no let up in Israeli strikes on Jabalia refugee camp in northern Gaza, according to journalists on the ground. 

"The violent Israeli shelling of Jabalia camp has escalated, coinciding with the most intense artillery shelling yet," Al Jazeera journalist Anas Al-Sharif is reporting.

"The occupation forces are carrying out bombing and detonation operations against citizens' homes, in light of the continued comprehensive siege and encirclement of northern Gaza". 

According to the Associated Press, Israel is weighing a plan to starve northern Gaza civilians.
