Updated 8:38 AM EDT, September 21, 2024
DEIR AL-BALAH, Gaza Strip (AP) — An Israeli strike on a school in northern Gaza on Saturday killed at least 22 people, the Gaza Health Ministry said.
Another 30 were wounded in the strike on the school in the Zeitoun area of Gaza City, the ministry said in a statement.
The Israeli army said earlier Saturday it struck a Hamas’ “command and control center, which was embedded inside a compound that previously served” as a school.
“The Hamas terrorist organization systematically violates international law by operating from inside civilian infrastructure,” the army said.
The Israeli army has continually accused Hamas of operating from within civilian infrastructure in Gaza, including schools and United Nations facilities.
