At least 19 Palestinians were killed and dozens of others injured in Israeli shelling on a school housing displaced persons in the Nuseirat refugee camp of the central Gaza Strip, according to Palestinian sources.
Local sources and eyewitnesses reported on Sunday that Israeli artillery fired on the Al-Mufti school, which houses dozens of displaced families in the northern Nuseirat camp.
The ambulance crew and civil defence units quickly arrived at the targeted site, they said, adding flashlight beams and mobile phone lights pierced the darkness caused by a power outage as rescue workers worked to transport the injured.
