Four children were killed in Gaza City on Wednesday, medics said, in Israeli shelling witnessed by The Telegraph and other foreign journalists.
The four were among a group on the beach when the attack took place, emergency services spokesman Ashraf al-Qudra said, with some of the surviving injured children taking refuge at a nearby hotel where journalists were staying.
Journalists heard two loud explosions outside the Gaza City hotel, before children were pulled into the restaurant area for treatment.
A journalist who saw the incident said some of the children who survived were running away when another shell seemed to be aimed at them.
