13 killed at UN school, not 20, says official
Revising initial reports that put the death toll from a strike on a Gaza UNWRA school at 20, Gaza health ministry spokesman Ashraf al-Qidra says 13 people were killed in the attack.
He adds that some 90 people were injured in the shelling.
Palestinians blame Israel for the attack, but IDF sources say they are unaware of the incident.
Al-Qidra also writes on his Facebook page that the Gaza death toll is 1,255 with 7,100 injured.
Israel says several hundred of those killed were Hamas fighters.
