At least 30 people were reportedly killed and 53 wounded in an explosion in a UN-run school in the town of Jabalya in the northern Gaza Strip, according to Palestinians. The IDF issued a statement saying the school grounds were used by terrorists to fire mortar shells at the troops. According to the IDF, among the dead were members of a Hamas launching cell, including operatives Immad Abu Askar and Hassan Abu Askar.

and were the people killed by the Israeli fire or by secondary explosions?
and why would there be secondary explosions in an innocent, harmless school full of children?
Paratroopers operating near the town of El-Atatra discovered on Tuesday a booby-trapped doll at the entrance to a smuggling tunnel. The doll was safely dismantled.

It’s a secondary school?
It is the Hamas men's fault one way or another. I'm sure they thought the Israelis wouldn't return fire to a UN school.
Why is the UN allowing terrorists to use their school to launch mortars?
They voted Hamas into power. There are no noncombatants.
The culprits: Those that use school grounds to fire motors, who hide behind women and children, will be made out as the victims.
The victims: Those who were attacked by rockets repeatedly and are defended by an organized military that attempts to minimize collateral damage, a nation ruled by laws, a republic, they will be made out as the culprit.
I'm just taking a guess, that’ll be the outcome in a liberal mind.
Maybe the mortar launchers fit into the teaching plan there.
If the IDF wanted to simply kill lots of Palis, they would just use dumb bombs and do it non-stop. Nope, they are not idiots and they have eyes where their bombs are directed. They hit with precision what is targeted. The Palis make the problems by putting their terrorists behind the skirts of women and little girls. They cause the deaths.
Rotten minds; rotted souls.
Glad the video is out, it just about puts this story to rest.
Shows what type of animals we are dealing with.
Soon they will be allowing babies that survive abortion to not recieve medical attention so they can die. Just like our President-elect voted for.
The UN is already protesting saying the school was clearly marked with a UN flag. Maybe they were UN mortars too

The Israelis know they can win the shooting war. These drone films are their way of keeping up in the PR war.
