******** strike ****** 22 in school shelter: Palestinians

Palestinians say an ******** strike has ******* at least 22 people in a school sheltering displaced people in southern Gaza City, while the ******** military says the ******* targeted a ****** command centre.

The Gaza health ministry said most of those ******* were women and children.

The ******-run government media office said 13 children, including a three-month-old baby, and six women were among the *****.

The ******** military said it hit a ****** command centre embedded in the compound that previously served as a school, repeating an accusation that ****** uses civilian facilities for military purposes – a charge which ****** denies.

In Rafah, in the southern Gaza Strip, the Gaza health ministry said four health workers were ******* by an ******** strike that hit ministry warehouses. Ambulance crews could not reach the ***** or treat the wounded, it added.

In a statement on Saturday, the ******** military said forces, operating in Rafah since May, have ******* dozens of militants in recent weeks and dismantled military infrastructure and tunnel shafts.

*******’s demand to keep control of the southern border line between Rafah and Egypt has been a major sticking point in international efforts to conclude a ceasefire deal between ******* and ******.

****** says it is focused on an agreement to end the war and get ******** forces out of Gaza, while ******* says the war can only end once ****** is eradicated.

Another sticking point has been the specifics of an exchange of ******** hostages for ************ prisoners held by *******.

This war in the decades-old ********-************ conflict was triggered on October 7 when ****** attacked *******, ******** 1200 people and taking about 250 hostages, according to ******** tallies.

*******’s subsequent ******** on the ******-governed enclave has ******* more than 41,000 Palestinians, according to the local health ministry, and displaced nearly the entire 2.3 million-strong population.
