Egypt Urges Israel to Take Responsibility for Attack on Al-Fakhoura UN School

Cairo, MINA – The Egyptian Ministry of Foreign Affairs in a statement on its official Facebook account said that the Israeli attack on the Al-Fakhoura school in the Jabalia refugee camp, northern Gaza Strip was a war crime that required an investigation to hold the perpetrators accountable.

The statement came after dozens of people were martyred and injured in the Israeli bombing of a learning center managed by the UN Relief Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) on Saturday, another attack also occurred at the Tal Azzatar school in the refugee camp.

“The attack is a deliberate insult to the UN, aid organizations and noble humanitarian values and a new blatant violation that adds to a series of Israeli violations against civilians in the Gaza Strip,” said the Egyptian Foreign Ministry as quoted by Anadolu Agency.

The Egyptian Foreign Ministry called on influential international parties and the UN Security Council to immediately intervene to end human suffering in the Gaza Strip.
