Jordan’s foreign ministry has denounced an Israeli attack on the UN-operated al-Jaouni school in central Gaza, which killed at least 18 people, including six UN staff, Al Jazeera reports.
“Israel’s continued violation of international law and international humanitarian law is a result of the absence of a strong and decisive international stance,” said a statement attributed to the ministry’s spokesman Sufyan Qudah.
The statement also called on the international community, in particular the UN Security Council, “to take immediate and decisive steps to stop these crimes against the Palestinian people”.
