Palestinians fear Israel's plan to bomb schools sheltering civilians in Gaza

Gaza’s government press office warned that Israeli forces intend to bombard the Al-Buraq and the Al-Aqsa schools west of Gaza.

The two schools have been used as shelters amid heavy Israeli bombardment over the past week. 

The government’s press office has called on international institutions to protect the two schools and stop the bombardment. 

Online, Gaza residents have taken to social media to express fears over the possibility of further bombardment in a densely populated city where many have already been forced to evacuate their homes and offices.
