A Palestinian firefighter holds a hose while extinguishing a fire at the U.N. compound after it was struck by Israeli fire in Gaza City January 15, 2009. Israel unleashed its heaviest shelling of Gaza's crowded neighbourhoods on Thursday, hitting a U.N. compound and a media building in what might be a final push against Hamas before a ceasefire deal.
