The Telegraph in England:

With Israel barring foreign journalists from reaching Gaza, it is impossible to verify the account of what happened to the Samouni family emerging from eyewitness testimony provided by survivors.

But different survivors all gave near identical accounts of how the Israeli army arrived at dawn on Sunday in the area of Zeitoun where the Samouni family have lived for generations.

In what the United Nations fears could be the bloodiest single attack of the Israeli assault, as many as 60 members of the extended Samouni family were killed near their homes in the Gazan town of Zeitoun while nine more died in hospital.

According to the Council on American-Islamic Relations:

“Unfortunately, this unimaginable carnage is being carried out with the political support of our own government,” said CAIR National Communications Director Ibrahim Hooper. “Elected officials must stand up for justice and demand an end to Israeli war crimes.”
