As the death toll from Israel's obliteration of Gaza topped 11,000, U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken said 'far too many Palestinians have been killed'—while the United States' armed aid to Israel continues.
Palestinian civil defense officials said Friday that more than 50 bodies were recovered from the rubble of a school in northern Gaza where civilians were sheltering when it was destroyed during overnight Israeli bombardment. Palestine's WAFA News Agency reported civil defense and ambulance rescue teams removed the blasted and crushed remains of victims of Thursday night's missile and artillery strikes on the al-Buraq School in the al-Nasr neighborhood of Gaza City.
3 million people have been forcibly displaced, while half the homes in the besieged strip have been destroyed. Officials also said 238 schools, 67 mosques, and 88 government buildings have been wiped out by Israeli attacks.
