IDF says it hit Hamas command center placed in former school in Gaza City

Air Force jets conducted a targeted strike a short while ago on a Hamas command center placed at the site of a former school in Gaza City, the IDF says.

The military says the airstrike on the former Saleh a-Din School compound was “precise” and intelligence-based, targeting a site used by the Palestinian terror group to “plan and carry out terror actions against IDF forces and the State of Israel.”

It adds that it took many steps to mitigate harm to civilians, including using precise munitions, aerial observation and more.

The army once again accuses Hamas of violating international law by placing its assets in civilian areas and compounds.
