00:00Cries of anguish amid the sirens of ambulances that take away the wounded.
00:08On Wednesday, an Israeli missile struck a school in Nusrat in the central Gaza Strip
00:14that had been converted into a shelter for displaced people by the UN's Agency for Palestinian
00:19Refugees.
00:20The sound of an explosion shook the building.
00:25We went out running and saw body parts strewn all over the shelter.
00:29My children are still missing, four of them.
00:31I don't know where they are.
00:33I don't know where my daughters are.
00:34My wife was sleeping right here in the corner.
00:37Where is she?
00:38I don't know.
00:39I don't know where my wife is.
00:41There were numerous people killed, among them at least one woman and two children and on
00:48raw staff.
00:49The United Nations secretary-general condemned the attack.
00:55What's happening in Gaza is totally unacceptable.
00:58A school-turned-shelter for around 12,000 people was hit by Israeli airstrikes again
01:03today.
01:04Six of our unraw colleagues are among those killed.
01:07These dramatic violations of international humanitarian law need to stop now.
01:14The Israeli army said it had targeted Hamas members who it said were preparing attacks
01:19from inside the school, which is located within a refugee camp.
01:23The school had previously been targeted by Israeli strikes on a number of occasions.
01:28More than 90% of school buildings in Gaza have been partly or wholly destroyed since
01:32the start of the war.
01:34Israel insists that Hamas maintains bases and schools among civilian populations.
