UN, US Condemn Israeli Strike That Hit School
Israeli forces deny intentionally targeting the site
An attack that killed 10 people at a UN-run Gaza school was a "moral outrage and a criminal act", UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon has said.
It constituted a "gross violation of international law", Mr Ban said.
State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki said the US was appalled by the "disgraceful" shelling.
The blast hit the entrance of the school, which is sheltering thousands displaced by the conflict. Israel denies firing into the school.

Because, of course, when the US makes war, it never hits the wrong place.
Weapons at the school? Never happened before.
Sniping from the school? Like the hospital?
There is a war, and Hamas doesn't fight according to civil rules.
I was in Iraq. We left entire areas of towns in rubble with all of our 'smart bombs.'
Given the record of Hamas, I would like some investigation into the possibility that Hama targeted the school themselves.
Given the records on both sides, I'm gonna wait before I join the Pal-supporters parade.
It is possible that the IDF blew it; when you're playing hand-grenades a mistake is dangerous. But I'll wait for more info.
