IDF strikes 2nd Gaza school in 2 days

The Israel Defense Forces said it conducted a strike Sunday on a school in Gaza City, which it said was targeting Hamas militants operating inside the school.

It was the second strike on a Gaza school in two days.

The Gaza Civil Defense said six people were killed in Sunday’s strike.

The IDF claimed that "terrorists were operating from within a compound that previously served as the 'Kafr Qasem' School." It said in a statement, in part, that "numerous steps were taken to mitigate the risk of harm to uninvolved civilians."
