Israel massacred 28 civilians in an air strike on a school sheltering displaced families in central Gaza yesterday as part of the continuation of its “Zionist war crimes with American cover.”

In a statement the movement said the Israeli occupation army has committed a horrific massacre in the Rufaidah School in the city of Deir Al-Balah, while besieging northern Gaza and torturing and killing civilians there.

“The brutal Israeli massacre committed in Deir Al-Balah is an extension of the Israeli crimes committed over the course of a year of genocide in the Gaza Strip” and “a continuation of a year of heinous operations of deliberately targeting defenceless civilians – in residential neighbourhoods, homes, shelters and displacement centres – with the support of the American administration, a partner in this genocide,” the statement said.

Hamas called on the international community and Arab countries to immediately intervene and stop the Israeli crimes, adding that their inaction “portend the complete collapse of the international system with all its foundations, laws and values.”
