At least 12 citizens were killed, and dozens of others were injured, in an Israeli occupation artillery shelling, Monday afternoon, on a UNRWA school that houses hundreds of displaced people.

Local sources said that Israeli artillery targeted an UNRWA school in the “Block 12” area of the Bureij camp in the central Gaza Strip, housing displaced people from the northern Gaza Strip, resulting in at least 12 martyrs and dozens being injured.

The sources added that about two thousand displaced people were sheltering in this school, with hundreds of them arriving in batches over the past few days.
