The US has told Israel it must nẹ fully "transparent"over an air strike that reportedly killed at least 35people at a central Gaza school packed with displaced people.

Local journalists told the BBC a warplane had fired twomissiles at classrooms on the top floor of the school inthe Nuseirat urban refugee camp.

The Israeli military said it had conducted a "precise"strike on a "Hamas compound" in the school, butGaza's Hamas-run government media office denied the claim.

The US called on Israel to identify publicly the Hamasfighters it said it had killed - just as the Israeli militarygave the names of nine of them.
