"The Israel Defense Forces said Friday that they had carried out an airstrike on a Hamas command center that had been set up in a United Nations school in Gaza City’s Shati neighborhood, killing several members of the cell.
The strike comes a day after the IDF hit another UN school housing what it said was a compound used by dozens of terror operatives. The IDF on Friday also released the identities of another eight Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad operatives who were among those killed in that strike, bringing the number of named terror operatives so far to to 17.
According to the IDF, the Hamas members killed in the Friday strike had been operating from inside a container on the grounds of the Asmaa School, which is run by UNRWA, the UN agency for Palestinian refugees.
The container was being used as a command room by the operatives and a meeting point for members of the terror group’s internal security forces, the IDF said, noting that the operatives killed on Friday had been planning attacks against Israeli forces in Gaza in the ‘immediate timeframe.’..."
