Israeli forces continue to pound schools turned into shelters
Israeli strikes have hit at least three schools being used as shelters in Gaza in recent hours.
One attack struck a school in Gaza City’s Zeitoun neighborhood, while another strike, also in Zeitoun, killed three people and wounded several. A third attack targeted a school in Jabalia, leaving four dead and others injured.
International humanitarian law forbids attacks on civilian infrastructure, including schools, but throughout its deadly assault on Gaza, Israel has repeatedly bombed schools, most of which are now being used as shelters for people who have been forcibly displaced.
