At least 274 Palestinians have been killed in attacks on 21 shelter schools in the Gaza Strip since 4 July, the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) revealed on Saturday.
This statement follows the recent killing of more than 100 Palestinians and the injury of hundreds more in an Israeli air strike that targeted worshippers during dawn prayers at Al-Tabi’in School, which had been serving as a refuge for those fleeing Israeli military operations, according to the Gaza Government Media Office.
Over the past ten months, Israel has waged a genocidal war on Gaza leaving vast tracts of the enclave in ruins amid a crippling blockade of food, clean water and medicine.
Israel is accused of genocide at the International Court of Justice (ICJ).
