Rescuers search for survivors from Israel's latest school bombings
Palestinians mourn for a relative killed in the Israeli bombardment of the Gaza Strip, at a hospital in Deir al-Balah, August 4, 2024
RESCUERS were searching for survivors today in the rubble of two Gaza City schools bombed by Israeli forces on Sunday.
The bombing raid against what Israel claims were Hamas command-and-control centres in the schools was the third targeting of schools in a week by its military.
At least 30 people were killed in Sunday’s strikes, mostly children, adding to 32 killed in the previous two school bombings. Paramedics described screaming mothers shifting rubble as they searched for their children.
