Ban Ki-Moon orders probe after rockets fired at Israel from UNRWA school

United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-Moon ordered on Thursday an investigation into an incident last week during which Palestinians fired rockets into Israel from a Gaza Strip school run by the United Nations Relief Works Agency. Ban condemned the use of UN facilities for "evil." He called to prevent action which harmed civilians, especially children, and harmed the ability of UNRWA to fulfill its humanitarian mission.

#3 If true, that's an improvement over ol' Kofi. All he would have wanted to investigate was the vig the UN received for use of the facility.

#9 Right, tu, they were just doing a practical exercise in physics, measuring the trajectory of the rockets and comparing it the theoretical trajectory. That's the ticket.
