Palestinians are preparing to hold the funeral of a teenager abducted and murdered in Jerusalem.
The killing of 17-year-old Mohammed Abu Khdair on Wednesday was condemned by both Israeli and Palestinian leaders. The murder sparked fierce clashes amid claims it was in revenge for the killing of three Israeli youths.
Israel carried out a series of air strikes on Gaza early on Thursday in response to Palestinian militants launching rockets at Israel.
Israeli officials said militants had fired dozens of mortars and rockets since Wednesday morning and two had struck houses, but no-one was injured.
