Gaza's civil defence agency said an Israeli strike on a school-turned-shelter killed at least 17 people on Thursday in the Palestinian territory's central Nuseirat area.
The Israeli military hit Al-Shuhada school in Nuseirat camp, killing 17 people and wounding dozens more, Mahmud Bassal, spokesman for the agency, told AFP. The toll was confirmed by Al-Awda hospital, which said the school had been hit by an air strike.
