ISRAELI forces have killed at least 17 Palestinians and injured another 80 in an attack on a school for displaced people in Gaza’s Nuseirat refugee camp.

Sunday’s bombing of the United Nations-run Abu Oraiban school is the fifth attack on a school turned shelter in the past week.

Palestinian Civil Defence spokesman Mahmoud Basal said the school was housing “thousands of displaced people” and that most of the dead were women and children.
