## Transcript

Condemnation followed the shelling of a United Nations school in Gaza filled with refugees. The death tolls varies by media outlet, anywhere from 15 Palestinians killed to 20. It was more than, 3, 000 Palestinians they were sheltering inside this school. When, in his words, the school was hit by several explosions with absolutely no warning. The attack happened at this school, serving as a refugee camp in the northern Gaza city of Jibaliya. The Israeli military says Hamas militants had fired mortars near the school, prompting Israeli defense forces to fire back. IDF has used this defense before, saying Hamas routinely fires rockets from populated areas, and uses civilians as human shields.

Israel has also vowed to destroy all tunnels militants used, leading out of Gaza. On Tuesday, the United Nation's Relief and Work Agency, which operates this latest school bombed. Revealed workers found a cache of rockets in another school closed for the summer. That's the third case in recent weeks. None of those revelations slowed criticism of Israel for the attack. The UNRWA's Commissioner General sent several outraged Tweets Wednesday morning, condemning Israel. and calling the attack where women and children we're sleeping intolerable. The Gaza Health Ministry in the UN say that in less than a month of fighting.

1, 270 Palestinians have been killed, most of them civilians. More than 50 Israeli soldiers died. Hamas has pledged not to end fighting until its demands are met to lift an economic blockade that's crippled the Palestinian economy since 2006, and open Gaza's borders into Israel and Egypt.
