Israel carried out airstrikes in Gaza including a school, 60 killed; Hamas made these allegations
The Israeli army has said that on Tuesday there was a fierce battle with Hamas fighters in various areas of the Gaza Strip, in which a large number of fighters were killed. At the same time, the Palestinian Health Ministry said that at least 60 Palestinian civilians have been killed in heavy bombing by Israel in southern and central Gaza, including 16 refugees killed in an attack on a school.
Hamas has alleged that Israel wants to derail the Gaza ceasefire talks by attacking like this, while Israel has said that it is trying to uproot Hamas fighters.
