Video of beheaded babies draws line, says Candice King

Many of those who died were burned alive inside, says Palestine Red Crescent Society

TEL AVIV, Israel (CNN) -- It was a moment of elation amid tragedy in December as baby Tala Rouqa was born in a tent camp in Rafah, a city in the southern Gaza Strip.

Just two weeks old, she was among dozens of Palestinians who died on Saturday in an Israeli airstrike on the tent camp, her family said. The Israeli military said it was targeting militants who were firing rockets into Israel, but the strike also killed dozens of civilians.

The video of Tala's death, posted on social media by her father, has drawn widespread condemnation, with many people calling it a war crime.

"This is a massacre," said Candice King, an actress who is known for her role in "The Vampire Diaries." "The Israeli government needs to be held accountable for its actions."

The Palestine Red Crescent Society said that many of those who died were burned alive inside their tents. The Israeli military said that it was investigating the incident.

The strike on the tent camp was part of a wider Israeli offensive in Gaza that began on Friday. The offensive has killed at least 150 Palestinians, including dozens of children.

The Israeli government said that the offensive is necessary to stop Hamas, the militant group that controls Gaza, from firing rockets into Israel.

However, the United Nations has called for an immediate ceasefire, saying that the Israeli offensive is causing "unacceptable" levels of civilian casualties.
