Israel’s military struck a school in Gaza, which it said had up to 30 Hamas terrorists inside, on June 6.

The director of the Hamas-run media office in Gaza rejected Israel’s claims that the U.N. school in Nuseirat, in central Gaza, had hidden a Hamas command post. He alleged the strike killed more than two dozen civilians seeking shelter.
