Israeli forces shelled a U.N.-run school sheltering Palestinians in the northern Gaza strip, the Gaza health ministry said on Thursday, killing at least 15 people and raising the conflict's death toll to nearly 750.

Israel Radio said, without citing a source, that most of those killed at the United Nations school were children.

The Israeli military had no immediate comment on the incident reported as a truce between the Jewish state and Hamas-led Islamist guerrillas remained elusive, despite intensive attempts at mediation.

Wait..now I am hearing that perhaps it was a HAMAS rocket that hit the school, since rockets have been fired from that UN school(Gee, a UN school, what a shock)

How is it that it’s only Palestinians that are ever reported as killed?

Hamas never looses anyone, amazing

As soon as the rockets were discovered, UNRWA staff were withdrawn from the premises

They should have arrested the UN people, interrogated them, and then found out who instructed them to allow the rockets. Once that happened, take out the UN people who set it up. When is enough, enough?

In other words, the UN allows Hamas terror group to have and use rockets to attack a sovereign country.
