Casualties after third ******** strike on schools in a week

Dozens of people have reportedly been ******* in ******** air strikes on two schools in Gaza, according to ************ rescuers and news outlets.

Some of those ******* were displaced people sheltering at the schools, rescuers said.

The ******* Defense Forces (IDF) confirmed the strike, saying it had targeted ****** “command and control centres” within two schools in Gaza City.

The strikes were the third time in a week schools in Gaza have been hit by ******** strikes.

The IDF said: “The schools were used by ******’s al-Furqan Battalion as a hiding place for its ********** operatives and as command centres used to plan and ******** attacks against IDF troops and the state of *******.”

Footage on social media purported to show bodies inside one of the schools as rescuers evacuated casualties, including children.

************ media said at least 30 people were ******* in the strikes. Mahmoud Basal, a spokesman for the ************ Civil Defence, said most of the ***** were women and children.

He added that more people were believed to be ******* under the rubble.

The ******* on the al-Nasr and Hassan Salama schools came on the day of an ******* on a camp for displaced people in a hospital in central Gaza, which reportedly ******* at least five people.

On Saturday, an air strike on Hamama School in Gaza City reportedly ******* at least 17 people.

Days earlier, a strike on Dalal al-Mughrabi School ******* 15, according to officials,

The IDF says it takes care to minimise risk to civilians when conducting strikes but ************ Civil Defence described Sunday’s attacks as “a massacre”.

In a separate development on Sunday morning, two people were ******* in a stabbing ******* in the ******** city of Holon. The ************ attacker was later shot *****, police said.

The *******-Gaza war began on 7 October, when ****** carried out an unprecedented ******* on *******, ******** about 1,200 people and taking 251 others back to Gaza as hostages.

The ******* triggered a massive ******** military response, which has ******* at least 39,480 Palestinians in Gaza, according to the territory’s ******-run health ministry.
