Iran condemns Israeli attack on two schools in Gaza

Iran’s Foreign Ministry spokesperson Nasser Kan'ani said that due to the inaction of the countries of the world and international organizations regarding the genocide of the Palestinian nation in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank, the Zionist regime is committing a new war crime and mass murder against Palestinian citizens, women and children.

He called on the international community, especially the Islamic countries, to act against the blatant genocide of the Palestinian nation by Zionists.

At least 50 people were killed in the attack on the al-Fakhoora School, the Palestinian Ministry of Health said on Saturday. It said the two attacks killed and injured hundreds of people.

Israeli attacks on schools, hospitals, and public facilities seem to be a trend right now. Multiple air raids inflicted severe destruction on both schools.

Almost 200 people have been killed in these attacks and the number is expected to increase as there are many under the rubble. People are using shovels and their bare hands to dig people out.

Several hundred people were believed to have taken shelter at both schools, fleeing the non-stop Israeli attacks. The attack on al-Fakhoora is believed to have taken place in the early hours of the morning, while the attack on Tal al-Zaatar took place later in the day.
