Israel has declared a state of emergency in Lod, as clashes with the Palestinian intensified, reports the BBC. Several casualties have been reported in Israel and a case has recently been reported in which a father and daughter lost their lives when a rocket hit their car.

Palestinian militants fired hundreds of rockets at Israel as Israel carried out major airstrikes in Gaza. At least 40 people have died from the worst violence in years.

The Israeli military says it is targeting militants in Gaza in response to rocket attacks in Jerusalem and other areas. More than 1,000 rockets have been fired at central and southern Israel by Palestinian militants since Monday night, when the conflict escalated suddenly, the Israeli military said.

Palestinian militants said they targeted the Israeli city of Tel Aviv after an Israeli airstrike on Tuesday destroyed a tower in the Gaza Strip.

A second block of towers collapsed in the Gaza Strip after another Israeli attack. Residents were warned to evacuate residents of the 12-storey al-Ja'hara tower. Health officials, however, said civilians were also killed.
