Single Bloodiest Day

[U]nprecedented waves of airstrikes Saturday, killing at least 155 and wounding more than 310 in the single bloodiest day of fighting in recent memory. . . . Some of the Israeli missiles struck in densely populated areas as children were leaving school, and women rushed into the streets frantically looking for their children. . . . ''We are treating people on the floor, in the corridors. We have no more space. We don't know who is here and what the priority is to treat."
