A Palestinian man reads holy Quran as he sits with his family in a tent on the rubble of their house, which witnesses said was destroyed during the Israeli offensive, on the second day of a five-day ceasefire, in the Shejaiya district east of Gaza City on August 15, 2014. Israel and Palestinians are observing a five-day cease-fire which began at midnight Wednesday, in an attempt to allow talks between the sides in Cairo to continue. The negotiations are meant to secure a substantive end to the monthlong war and draw up a roadmap for the coastal territory of Gaza, which has been hard-hit in the fighting. Photo by Alaa Shamaly
