On Thursday, Gaza’s Hamas-run civil defense agency reported that the Israeli military conducted airstrikes on a school in the Gaza Strip, resulting in at least 15 deaths.
According to AFP, Mahmoud Basal, a spokesperson for Gaza’s Civil Defence agency, reported that Israeli airstrikes on the Al-Faluja school in the Jabalia camp in northern Gaza resulted in 15 casualties, including children and women, and left dozens injured.
In response, the Israeli military stated that their operations were specifically aimed at Hamas militants believed to be using the school as a command and control center.
This incident follows a previous airstrike on September 11, where Israeli forces targeted the Al-Jani school in the Nusairat refugee camp, resulting in 18 deaths, including UN personnel, and injuring 18 others.
