Israeli air strike on Gaza school kills over 20 Palestinians

Women and children were among the victims, with some bodies severely burned.
Israel's genocidal war, now in its five-hundred-ninety-seventh day, has claimed over fifty-three-thousand-nine-hundred Palestinian lives, with more than eleven-thousand still missing under the rubble.
Global outrage is growing as humanitarian conditions for Palestinians worsen due to the Israeli blockade.
Meanwhile, Israel’s Defence Ministry has overspent its war budget by four-point-seventeen billion dollars, sparking heated tensions with the Finance Ministry, which warns the gap may reach $7 billion. "

While distancing himself from the conflict, Trump calls this conflict “Zelenskyy’s, Putin’s, and Biden’s war.”
