IDF says it hit Hamas terrorists operating from building previously used as school in north Gaza

Israeli fighter planes targeted Hamas terrorists operating a command center from a building that was previously used as a school in northern Gaza, the IDF says.

The army says it took many steps ahead of time to reduce harm to civilians in the strike, including choosing more precise weapons and conducting aerial observations of the site ahead of time.

“The Hamas terror group systematically violates international law, brutally exploiting civilian institutions and the population as a human shield for terror operations,” the IDF says in a statement.
