School attack 'was response to hostile fire'

UN officials in Gaza say at least 30 people have been killed and 55 injured after Israeli tank shells landed near a UN school. But the Israelis say they were fired on from the school in Jabalya in northern Gaza.

Mark Regev is an Israeli government spokesman. He told the BBC they were still trying to establish what happened.
