Israeli Airstrike On Gaza School Kills 22, Military Claims Hamas Command Center Targeted
An Israeli airstrike on a school in northern Gaza on Saturday resulted in at least 22 deaths. Another 30 individuals were injured in the attack on the school located in Gaza City's Zeitoun area, with most of the victims being women and children, according to the Gaza Health Ministry. In response, the Israeli army stated that the strike targeted a Hamas command and control center that had been established within a building that had formerly functioned as a school. The military emphasised that precautions were taken to minimise civilian casualties by using precision munitions and conducting aerial surveillance.
“The Hamas terrorist organisation systematically violates international law by operating from inside civilian infrastructure,” the army said, as per news agency AP.
