Six seriously injured Palestinian children have been flown to Belgium from the war-torn Gaza Strip for treatment in Brussels hospitals.

The children were airlifted on a Belgian military plane, which brought them from El-Arish, an Egyptian town about 60km (37 miles) from Gaza.

Each child is accompanied by a parent. More than 200 Belgians have offered to accommodate the parents, reports say.
