The IDF says it carried out an airstrike against a group of Hamas operatives at a command room embedded within a former school in Gaza City a short while ago.
According to the military, Hamas was using the Ibn Al-Haytham School to plan and carry out attacks against IDF troops and against Israel.
The school has been serving as a shelter for displaced Gazans, according to Palestinian media.
The IDF says it took steps to mitigate civilian harm in the strike, and accuses Hamas of “systematically” using civilian sites for terror.
