At Least 30 Dead in Israeli Airstrike on Gaza School

Israel Claims School Used as Hamas Command Centre
The school lies in a densely populated area of displaced families but, according to the Israeli military, it was also being used as a Hamas command centre. Israeli authorities say the location was behind launching attacks on Israeli troops and served as a weapons cache.
Warnings were allegedly issued to civilians before the strike, but the deadly hit has sparked outrage and further violence.
