U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris has condemned the high number of civilian deaths in Gaza following an Israeli air strike on a school. Speaking in Phoenix, she said "far too many" civilians had been killed, stressing Israel’s responsibility to avoid such casualties. The strike, which targeted al-Taba’een school, killed over 70 people. Israel claims the school was a Hamas military site, a charge Hamas denies. The attack has drawn criticism from global powers, with calls for a ceasefire. Harris reiterated the need for a hostage deal and peace talks.
