##以色列袭击加沙地带学校致12人死亡，巴以冲突再添悲剧
**中新网8月20日电** 据卡塔尔半岛电视台报道，当地时间8月20日，以色列军队袭击加沙地带加沙城一所学校，造成至少12人死亡。
据报道，该学校收容了数百名流离失所者，他们在巴以冲突中失去了家园。加沙民防部门表示，袭击造成多人死亡，具体伤亡人数还在统计中。
法新社报道指出，以色列军方称，这所学校之所以成为袭击目标，是因为巴勒斯坦伊斯兰抵抗运动（哈马斯）在此有“指挥中心”。然而，哈马斯否认了以色列关于其将学校和医院用于军事目的的指控。
路透社援引加沙地带卫生部门消息称，自2023年10月新一轮巴以冲突爆发以来，以色列军队在加沙地带的军事行动已导致至少40173名巴勒斯坦人死亡。
此次事件再次引发国际社会对巴以冲突的关注。联合国秘书长古特雷斯发表声明，对学校袭击事件表示强烈谴责，并呼吁立即停止暴力，保护平民安全。
美国国务卿布林肯表示，美国对袭击事件感到担忧，并呼吁以色列采取措施避免平民伤亡。
巴勒斯坦方面谴责以色列袭击学校的行为是“战争罪”，并呼吁国际社会对以色列施加压力，停止对加沙地带的攻击。
此次事件再次凸显了巴以冲突的复杂性和残酷性，也再次提醒人们，在冲突中保护平民安全至关重要。国际社会应共同努力，推动巴以双方尽快结束冲突，实现和平共处。

**GAZACITY, Aug. 20 (Xinhua)** – An Israeli airstrike on a school in Gaza City killed at least 12 people on Monday, accordingto Al Jazeera.
The school, which housed hundreds of displaced people who had lost their homes in the ongoing Israeli-Palestinian conflict, was targeted by the Israelimilitary, according to reports. The Gaza Civil Defense said the attack resulted in multiple deaths, with the exact casualty figures still being compiled.
The Israeli military claimed that the school was targeted because it housed a “command center” for Hamas,the Palestinian Islamic Resistance Movement. However, Hamas denied Israel’s accusations that it was using schools and hospitals for military purposes.
According to Reuters, the Gaza health ministry reported that Israeli military operations in the Gaza Strip have resulted in the deathsof at least 40,173 Palestinians since the latest round of Israeli-Palestinian conflict erupted in October 2023.
The incident has once again drawn international attention to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. UN Secretary-General António Guterres issued a statement strongly condemning the school attack and calling for animmediate end to violence and protection of civilians.
US Secretary of State Antony Blinken expressed concern over the attack and urged Israel to take steps to prevent civilian casualties.
Palestinian authorities condemned the Israeli attack on the school as a “war crime” and called on the international community to pressure Israel to stop its attacks on theGaza Strip.
The incident highlights the complexity and brutality of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and serves as a reminder of the paramount importance of protecting civilians in conflicts. The international community should work together to push both sides to end the conflict and achieve peaceful coexistence.
