Israel accuses Hamas of 'manipulating' media reports
Israel has been standing by its claims that the air strikes in Gaza have been surgical and that any claims to the contrary are an attempt by Hamas to manipulate the media.
The Israeli government's policy of barring independent journalists from Gaza has made it difficult to establish the true extent of what's happening, but estimates suggest that the violence, which is now into its first week, has claimed the lives of over 400 and injured hundreds more.
