Gaza's civil defence agency reported that 31 people were killed on August 19 by Israeli strikes and fire across the territory, with spokesman Mahmud Bassal telling AFP the situation was "very dangerous and unbearable" in the Zeitoun and Sabra neighbourhoods of Gaza City, where he said "artillery shelling continues intermittently".
