An Israeli airstrike destroyed a highrise building in Gaza City that housed offices of The Associated Press and other media outlets hours after another Israeli air raid on a densely populated refugee camp killed at least 10 Palestinians from an extended family, mostly children, on Saturday.

The strike on the highrise came nearly an hour after the military ordered people to evacuate the 12-storey building, which included the offices of Al-Jazeera, and residential apartments. The strike brought down the entire structure, which collapsed in a cloud of dust. There was no immediate explanation for why it was attacked.

A Palestinian journalist was wounded in the strike, Palestinian media reported, and debris and shrapnel flew dozens of yards away.

The latest outburst of violence started in Jerusalem and spread across the region over the past week, with Jewish-Arab clashes and rioting in mixed cities of Israel. There were also widespread Palestinian protests Friday in the occupied West Bank, where Israeli forces shot and killed 11 people.
