Palestinian men carry a wounded girl into Gaza City at al-Shifa hospital after the Israeli artillery bombarded the Gaza Strip in a dramatic escalation of the campaign against Hamas on January 1, 2009 . The international Red Cross warned that increasing numbers of civilians in the Gaza Strip are being killed during Israel's military offensive, locking the territory in a 'full blown' humanitarian crisis. Israeli artillery today bombarded the Gaza Strip in a dramatic escalation of the campaign against Hamas after a week of air attacks which have left more than 450 Palestinians dead. New Israeli air strikes killed at least 10 Palestinians in a mosque as well as two Hamas military commanders as pressure mounted on the Hamas Leadership to cease rocket-fire into Southern Israel.
