CHICAGO (CBS) -- In the conflict between Israel and Hamas, more than 700 Israelis, 400 Palestinians and several Americans have been killed since Hamas' surprise attack on Saturday. 

At least 260 bodies were found at a music festival in Israel. 

The United Nations says more than 123,000 Gazans have been displaced. 

In a show of support for Israel, the United States says it will add more fighter jets and attack planes in the region and move warships closer to the country. 

In Chicago Sunday Palestinian supporters rallied outside of the Israeli consulate near Madison and Canal. 

They also marched through streets in the Loop. 

The Chicago Coalition for Justice in Palestine protested against what it calls "decades of Israel's brutality and violations of Palestinian national and human rights" and calls the attacks on Israel "self defense operations."
