Rights group refutes Israel’s list of alleged targets in Gaza school attack

The Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor said that a list provided by the Israeli army of alleged targets at Al-Tab’een School in Gaza City includes individuals who were killed in previous attacks and civilians who opposed Hamas, Anadolu reports.

At least 100 people were killed and several injured Saturday when Israeli aircraft targeted Palestinians performing fajr (dawn) prayers at the school in the Al-Daraj neighborhood.

The Israeli military claimed it killed 19 fighters from Hamas and Islamic Jihad during the attack, but the two groups strongly denied this.
