U.N. Calls for Probe into Israel's Aid Site Massacre That Killed 31 People
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

The massacre follows a separate assault Sunday when witnesses saw
Israeli troops killed at least 31 people, also at a U.S.-backed aid
distribution center, injuring over 170 others. U.N. Secretary-General
António Guterres condemned Sunday's massacre and called for an immediate
and independent investigation.

Separately, The Guardian reports recent deadly airstrikes by Israel on
schools sheltering displaced people in Gaza were part of a deliberate
Israeli strategy that saw military planners loosen limits on strikes on
places where large numbers of civilians are present. Israel has attacked
six schools in recent months, killing over 120 people.
