UNRWA communications director says that the number of those reported killed in the Israeli offensive on the Nuseirat school is between 35 and 45, but it still cannot confirm the number at this stage.

DUBAI - UNRWA communications director Juliette Touma told Reuters on Thursday that the number of those reported killed in the Israeli offensive on the Nuseirat school is between 35 and 45, but it still cannot confirm the number at this stage, she added.

The Hamas-run Gaza government media office said earlier at least 27 people were killed and dozens injured.

There was no immediate confirmation by the health ministry, and Reuters could not immediately verify the announcement.
