Many schools have been turned into shelters for the 1.9 million Palestinians who have fled their homes since the war between Israel and Hamas started almost a year ago.<\/p>\n
However, at least 61% of schools have been directly hit during the conflict and another 24% have been damaged, according to satellite analysis by the UN and its partners.<\/p>\n
Three other schools in northern and central Gaza were struck by Israeli aircraft between last Saturday and Monday, reportedly killing at least 32 people.<\/p>\n
As with Thursday\u2019s strike in Jabalia camp, the Israeli military said it had targeted Hamas command centres and that it had taken steps to mitigate the risk of harming civilians.<\/p>\n
It also accused Hamas of systematically violating international law by operating from inside civilian infrastructure.<\/p>\n
The Israeli military launched a campaign to destroy Hamas in response to the group’s unprecedented attack on southern Israel on 7 October, in which about 1,200 people were killed and 251 others were taken hostage.<\/p>\n
More than 41,150 people have been killed in Gaza since then, according to the territory’s health ministry.<\/p>\n
In a speech to the UN General Assembly in New York on Thursday, Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas – a rival of Hamas who is based in the occupied West Bank – appealed to world leaders to end the war.<\/p>\n
“Stop this crime. Stop it now. Stop killing children and women. Stop the genocide. Stop sending weapons to Israel. This madness cannot continue,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Israel\u2019s ambassador to the UN, Danny Danon, condemned the speech, saying that Abbas \u201cdid not say the word \u2018Hamas\u2019 once\u201d.<\/p>\n
\u201cSince the massacre of 7 October, Abbas has failed to condemn Hamas for their crimes against humanity,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
The US, Egypt and Qatar are trying to broker a ceasefire and hostage release deal, which they also see as key to de-escalating between Israel and the Lebanese armed group Hezbollah. However, US officials have admitted the negotiations have stalled in recent weeks.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
