Some of the heaviest Israeli bombardment in weeks was reported overnight in Gaza. Health authorities said at least 34 people were killed, including five Al Jazeera staffers. It comes as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu continued to defend his plan to occupy Gaza’s largest city and an area that Israel has defined as a humanitarian zone for displaced Gazans. Nick Schifrin reports.
