Nuseirat school blast survivor says ‘women and children were blown to pieces’

One unidentified Palestinian man who survived the Nuseirat school blast expressed his anger about the latest Israeli assault on a shelter in Gaza, Al Jazeera reports.

“All of a sudden there was a huge explosion. Women and children were blown to pieces. This is the fifth time the school building was pounded by Israeli warplanes. It is supposed to be a safe sheltering area. What targets are the Israelis hitting in this school?” he asked.

Earlier, an attack hit a home near the southern city of Khan Younis, killing 11 people, including six brothers and sisters from the same family who ranged in age from 21 months to 21 years old, according to the European Hospital, which received the casualties.
