More than than 20 people have been killed following explosions at three UN schools in Gaza a relief agency has said, but the IDF has not yet taken responsibility for the blasts.
The UN Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) said it received “extraordinary, difficult news” about schools in the refugee camps of Jabaliya and Al Shati.
"Over the last few hours, I received reports that three of our schools sheltering about 20,000 people have been hit," Philippe Lazzarini, the commissioner general of the UNRWA told CNN.
“These are official UNWRA schools, where we shelter a number of displaced persons in the north of Gaza. These are shelters which are clearly notified,” he added.
