‘Another day, another war crime’
More than 30 killed by Israeli strike on UN school sheltering displaced Palestinians
Blood can be seen in the aftermath of the Israeli strike on a U.N.-run school that killed dozens of Palestinians in the Nusseirat refugee camp in the Gaza Strip, June 6, 2024

MORE than 30 people — mostly children — were killed by an Israeli strike on a UN school sheltering displaced Palestinians today.

Israel defended the latest bloodshed among Palestinians seeking refuge by claiming that Hamas was operating from within the UN refugee agency (UNRWA) school in Nuseirat refugee camp, central Gaza.

It did not provide evidence for its claims, as is usually the case with such attacks.
