A bomb detonated next to a Christian school in the Gaza Strip.

Police in Gaza City said the pre-dawn explosion Friday outside the Zahwa Rosary School caused little damage. The school was ransacked a year ago. There are just over 3,000 Christians living in the Gaza Strip, which has been controlled by the Hamas Islamist movement since 2006.
