Israel's attack on Gaza school is proof of a 'war of extermination', says Hamas

Hamas has condemned the Israeli attack on Hamama School in the Sheikh Radwan neighbourhood of Gaza City, which was sheltering thousands of internally displaced Palestinians.

“The occupation’s criminal attack on Hamama School, which shelters thousands of displaced persons, is an insistence on the brutal war of extermination,” the group stated.

“The occupation army continues its lies by claiming that civilian sites, including schools, hospitals, and displacement centres, are being used for military purposes.”

“The occupation army uses these lies as a pretext to target defenceless civilians in Gaza,” Hamas added.
