Seven German family members killed in Gaza - The Local

Ibrahim Kilani, his wife Taghrid , 47, and their five children, aged between four and 12, died during the raid, Palestinian medical services said on Tuesday.

At least three other people in the Kilanis' building were killed and dozens more injured when the upper floor of a tower was hit, according to reports. The target of the attack remains unclear.

"Due to several indications, we must assume that this family is among the dead," said a spokesman from the German Foreign Office on Tuesday afternoon in Berlin. Deaths of German citizens abroad are only officially confirmed when an official or diplomat has seen the bodies.

More than 580 people have been killed so far in the fighting.

The Kilanis lived in the north-west of Gaza, but had moved to the centre of Gaza City before the air strikes in response to an Israeli evacuation request.

Germany's Foreign Office a few days earlier urged all Germans living in the Gaza Strip - mostly Palestinians with a German passport - to immediately exit the crisis zone. However, around 60 still remain there.

As German citizens, they should heed to their governments advice for their safety.

Or maybe hamas terrorists should just stop firing rockets into israel.

Maybe Israel should stop violating ceasefires in order to derail the Palestinian unity agreement and destroy civilian lives.

Then why is hamas not accepting the ceasefire proposed by egypt when Israel is ready to do?

Or perhaps Israel should return the stolen Palestinian lands, lift the naval and land blockades and let the Palestinians live a normal life and not impose slavery on them and then they'll stop firing the rockets.

Because Hamas was not consulted and none of its demands were taken into account - only those of the Israelis were. What do you call a ceasefire agreement that includes only one of the warring sides? I'd call it a sham. If India was caught in the same situation, would you want it to accept this sham - that only your country's enemies have their demands met in a ceasefire agreement in which your country did not participate? And by the way, I'm sure Israel and Egypt did not want the ceasefire agreement to work - that's why they excluded Hamas from the talks; because they knew Hamas would obviously not agree to an accord from which it was moronically excluded.

And the loop continues...

It depends...if accepting "sham" helps in preventing loss of innocent life, then maybe India sawllows it's ego and sits for talks. At the end of the day, everybody's aim is to have peaceful settlement of the problem.
