The leaflets urged civilians to stay away from Hamas militants and to report any rocket launches.

AS THE CONFLICT rages on in Gaza, Israel has again dropped leaflets over the city containing warnings for Palestinian civilians.

The leaflets were dropped over the city’s Rimal neighbourhood. They urged residents to stay away from Hamas militants and to report possible rocket launches. They also gave a contact number and email address for people to do this.

Photos from the neighbourhood show adults and a number of children gathering the leaflets:
