News - Middle East: Hamas has vehemently condemned Israel’s latest barbarity in Gaza, including the attack on a UN school-turned-shelter that killed over two dozen people.

In a statement released on Tuesday, the Palestinian resistance movement denounced the “deliberate bombing” of hundreds of displaced Palestinians taking refuge at Razi School in the Nuseirat refugee camp in central Gaza. 

“This is a brutal and shameful act that is a scar on humanity.” 

The group also decried the recent killing of civilians in an attack on the Mawasi refugee camp, which was already declared a “safe” zone. At least 90 people were killed in an Israeli airstrike on the densely-populated camp near Khan Yunis on July 13.

Hamas held the US government accountable for complicity in the genocide and systematic killing of innocent Palestinians by providing financial and military assistance to Israel.

The statement reiterated that the Joe Biden administration is a partner to its staunch ally Israel, “which continues to carry out genocide” in Gaza.

“The US administration, led by President Biden, bears full responsibility for this systematic killing of our people, with its continued political and military support for the occupation and its army, and because of its obstruction of international justice in pursuing Israeli war criminals.”

In a separate development on Tuesday, Save the Children international charity organization condemned Israel’s attacks on schools and hospitals in Gaza.

In a post on X, the aid group said the recent attacks on schools and hospitals in Gaza were “horrific.”

“Children cannot continue to be at the forefront of this conflict. Hospitals and schools should never be targets.”
