But the UN school at which they had sought shelter eventually proved to provide no protection. On 16 July, ten months after they were forcibly displaced from their home, Israeli warplanes bombed the school that had become their haven.The attack partially destroyed the school, killed 23 people, and wounded more than 70, including Muhammad, whose right hand had to be amputated.
