Jan 6 - Israeli tank fire has killed at least 40 Palestinians sheltering at a United Nations school in Gaza.

It was the second such attack on a U.N. school on Tuesday. Three Palestinians were killed in an earlier strike.

Hundreds of Palestinians have been killed since Israel began its offensive in Gaza 11 days ago.
