Israel drew condemnation from the United Nations on Wednesday for the bombing of a U.N. school housing displaced Gaza residents. At least 16 people were killed, all civilians. U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon called the attack “shameful.”

Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon: “This morning, yet another United Nations school sheltering thousands of Palestinian families suffered a reprehensible attack. All available evidence points to Israeli artillery as the cause. Nothing is more shameful than attacking sleeping children. At least 16 civilians are dead, and many more are injured.”
