Israel's military strike on a UN school in Gaza claimed numerous lives, with Hamas denouncing it as a "horrific massacre." The strike, targeting what Israel claimed was a Hamas compound within the school, resulted in at least 27 fatalities and numerous injuries. The incident further exacerbates the ongoing conflict, with diplomatic efforts underway to secure a ceasefire and negotiate the release of hostages. Despite international backing for a truce proposal outlined by US President Biden, challenges persist as Hamas insists on a permanent ceasefire. The situation remains tense, with heightened security measures in Jerusalem amid annual right-wing marches.
