Deadly Israeli attack on UN-run school-turned-shelter sparks global outrage

The attack on al-Jaouni school, which killed more than a dozen Palestinians, has drawn condemnation from the UN and EU.

An Israeli strike on a school-turned-shelter for displaced Palestinians in Gaza that killed 18 people has drawn fierce global condemnation.

The attack flattened part of the al-Jaouni school in Nuseirat on Wednesday and killed six workers from UNRWA, the United Nations agency for Palestine refugees, which runs the school. The agency said it was the highest death toll among its team in a single incident in its history.

“Among those killed was the manager of the UNRWA shelter and other team members providing assistance to displaced people,” it said on X.

UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres branded the strike “totally unacceptable”.
