Live from Jerusalem’s Old City amid intensifying hostilities

Ruptly is live from Jerusalem’s Old City on Wednesday, May 12, amid intensifying violence between Israeli and Palestinian forces. On Monday, rockets were fired by Hamas at Israel amid Jerusalem Day celebrations, followed by Israel carrying out retaliatory strikes on Gaza. That led to further exchanges of fire that continued into Tuesday and Wednesday. On Tuesday, Gaza’s Health Ministry put the death toll at 43 casualties, including 13 children, since the latest offensive began. At least 233 people have been wounded.
