Palestinian sources said at least 29 people were killed Tuesday in a strike on a school being used to shelter displaced people in Gaza, the fourth such incident in four days, with Hamas blaming Israel for the deaths.

Israel’s military told AFP it was checking the latest reports. It has acknowledged carrying out three other strikes since Saturday on Gaza schools being used as shelters.

The strike hit the entrance to Al-Awda school in Abasan, said a source at Nasser hospital in the nearby southern city of Khan Yunis where victims were taken, adding that 29 were killed and dozens wounded.

      I’m not sure “easy to find with a search engine” is a good proxy for truthfulness. The NBC article is entirely based on what the IDF says, and NBC says they could not verify the claims. There isn’t any evidence that prisoners were in the hospital for military purposes, it seems entirely reasonable they were taken there to be treated, Hamas has every incentive to keep the prisoners in good health. Israel on the other hand has systematically destroyed all healthcare infrastructure in Gaza and has tried to make up any possible justifications for their crimes against humanity. Giving them any charity or credibility here is just foolishness.
