Israeli soldiers stand near an armoured personal carrier (APC) (L) as they battle Gaza militants who tunneled their way across the border and emerged about a mile away from the farm community of Kibbutz Nir Am, just outside the Gaza Strip July 21, 2014. While the Nir Am kibbutz was under lockdown on Monday, the deadly battle ensued between the Israeli troops and a squad of the Gaza militants, who had tunneled their way across the border and emerged about a mile away from the farm community. Israel said it killed 10 gunmen in the battle. The military said some were wearing Israeli army uniform and were equipped with explosive belts. Four Israeli soldiers, including the commanding officer, died in the fight. More than 600 Palestinians, many of them civilians, have died in the fighting, along with 29 Israelis, including 27 soldiers, since July 8, when Israel launched it's offensive against Gaza. Israel has dubbed the network of subterranean passages "Underground Gaza", which it says serves as Hamas command bunkers and houses rocket-launch silos. The military says it has discovered 23 tunnels and destroyed six so far. Picture taken July 21, 2014. REUTERS/Baz Ratner (ISRAEL - Tags: POLITICS CIVIL UNREST CONFLICT MILITARY)

Women and children attend a demonstration supporting Palestine, in Berlin July 22, 2014. Israel pounded targets across the Gaza Strip on Tuesday, saying no ceasefire was near as top U.S. and United Nations diplomats pursued talks on halting the fighting that has claimed more than 600 lives. Hamas, the dominant group in the Gaza Strip, and its allies fired more rockets into Israel, triggering sirens in Tel Aviv. One hit a town on the fringes of Ben-Gurion International Airport, lightly injuring two people, officials said. REUTERS/Steffi Loos (GERMANY - Tags: POLITICS CIVIL UNREST)
