Israeli Strike on School in Southern Gaza Strip Kills 29 - Gaza's Gov't
CAIRO (Sputnik) - Twenty nine people were killed in an Israeli strike near a school entrance in the Gaza Strip's Khan Yunis city, Gaza's government said on Tuesday.
"The Israeli occupation army carried out a horrific massacre of displaced people in a school in Abasan al-Kabira neighborhood in the east of Khan Yunis, killing 29 people, most of which were women and children," the government said in a statement.
