Israel in ‘second stage’ of Gaza assault as UN warns of civil order breakdown

The UN has warned that civil order is starting to break down in Gaza, after thousands of people looted warehouses, desperate for food.

Israel has moved more ground forces into the Strip and says its jets hit at least 450 Hamas targets in just 24 hours.

More than 8,000 people have now been killed in Gaza, according to the Hamas-controlled health ministry, and 41% of them are children.
