Tragedy in Gaza: School Shelter Targeted Amid Ceasefire Talks


An Israeli airstrike on a school-turned-shelter in Gaza City has claimed the lives of at least 23 people, including children, as Arab mediators work tirelessly to negotiate a long-term truce between Israel and Hamas. The strike ignited tents sheltering displaced Palestinians, leaving many burned alive.
