TARGETING a school during a war could be “justified” or at least argued to have been a mistake. But striking over 120 schools, killing and wounding thousands of civilians sheltered inside, can only be intentional and horrific war crimes.
Between October 7 and July 18, Israel has done precisely that, targeting with total impunity UN infrastructure in the besieged Gaza Strip.
The price has been horrific. According to UNRWA estimates, at least 561 internally displaced people in UNRWA shelters have been killed and 1,768 injured since the start of the war.
