At least 16 people were killed and more than 50 wounded in an Israeli strike on a school sheltering displaced Palestinians in Al Nuseirat, central Gaza, the Health Ministry said. Palestinian news agency Wafa reported that Israeli jets struck Al Ga‘uni School and the victims were displaced people living in a camp. At the scene, Ayman al-Atouneh told Reuters: “We came here running to see the targeted area, we saw bodies of children, in pieces, this is a playground, there was a trampoline here, there were swing-sets and vendors.”
