3:15 Friday Update:

In a phone call with journalist Mohamed Omer in Rafah, the IMEMC learnt that the army is bombing different areas in Rafah, and the Gaza Strip, and that the soldiers are using weapons that produce a very bad smell, and their effects cause burns on skin.

Omer told the IMEMC: “the situation is very difficult, and the army is using a weapon that burns skin on contact"

“The shelling is very close to where I am”, he added, "They [Israel] cut off the electricity, the Internet"
