MWL Strongly Condemns Targeting of School, City of Khan Yunis by Israeli Forces

The Muslim World League (MWL) strongly condemned the bombing of the Al-Tabi'een School by Israeli occupation forces for the second time and the continued bombing of the city of Khan Yunis, south of the Gaza Strip, which has led to the martyrdom of hundreds and the injury of dozens.
In a statement by the General Secretariat of the League, Secretary-General and Chairman of the Muslim Scholars Association, Sheikh Dr. Muhammad bin Abdul Karim Al-Issa, denounced these ongoing horrific and barbaric crimes targeting civilians and civilian facilities, which, in their brutality, represent a flagrant violation of international and humanitarian laws and norms, SPA reported.
He stressed the urgent need for the international community to respond immediately to the call to stop these massacres that the Israeli war machine continues to commit and to put an end to the systematic crimes against innocent civilians.
