An Israeli aircraft fired three missiles at the Al-Taba'in school in Gaza, where refugees had gathered for morning prayers, according to Palestinian emergency services, as reported by Strana.ua.
The attack resulted in the deaths of more than 100 people.
The Israel Defense Forces also confirmed a strike on a school in the Gaza Strip but claimed that the school was being used by Hamas.
EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell expressed his horror at the strike on the school, stating that such mass killings have no justification.
As reported by UOJ, Israel is anticipating an attack from Iran on the day of mourning for the destruction of the temple.
