Hamas Terrorists Eliminated While Planning Attacks From Inside UNRWA School Grounds

The Israeli Air Force with the direction of IDF intelligence and the ISA, targeted Hamas terrorists operating from a container inside the grounds of the 'Asmaa' UNRWA school in Shati, Gaza.

The container was used as a Hamas Operations Cell and a meeting point for Hamas operatives. Hamas terrorists inside the Operations Cell who were planning imminent attacks were eliminated. Hamas terrorists carried out terror attacks from the U.N. school premises while using it as a shield for their terror activities. Prior to the strike, many steps were taken to mitigate civilian harm.

The strike was carried out using precise munitions, leading to a precise strike on the terrorists.

The Hamas terrorist organization systematically, intentionally and strategically places its infrastructure and operates from within civilian areas, in full violation of international law and while putting the lives of Gazan civilians at risk.
