Two more Israeli soldiers were killed in fighting in the Gaza Strip, Israel's military said on Sunday.

The military said that 121 soldiers have died since Israel launched its ground offensive in Gaza on Oct. 27.

Israel pressed ahead with its offensive on Sunday.

Gaza remained under a communications blackout for a fourth straight day — the longest of several outages over the course of the war, which aid groups say complicate rescue efforts after bombings and make it even more difficult to monitor the war's toll on civilians.
