"Intense Bombing Shakes Gaza Border: CNN Reporter's Report Interrupted"

CNN reporter Nic Robertson's live report from Sderot, Israel, was interrupted by intense bombing in the background, with explosions and flashes lighting up the sky. Robertson described the scene as potentially indicative of the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) trying to gain control of more neighborhoods in the northern end of Gaza, despite the area already appearing heavily bombed and deserted. The bombings were some of the most intense seen in several days, and Robertson estimated that the towns and villages in the northern area of Gaza were being targeted.
