Gaza city: Two Palestinian children were killed and several others injured today when Israeli aircraft bombed a school sheltering displaced families in Gaza City.

According to Qatar News Agency, Israeli drones carried out multiple strikes on the Al Sabra neighborhood in the city’s northwest, coinciding with heavy artillery fire and the detonation of explosive-laden vehicles in the same area. At the same time, Israeli forces continued to demolish residential buildings around Gaza City, while warplanes launched a series of air raids on the Tel Al-Hawa district in the city’s southwest.

In central Gaza Strip, Israeli artillery shelled the northern parts of Al Bureij refugee camp, and occupation forces opened fire on Palestinians waiting for humanitarian aid near the Netzarim corridor. An Israeli airstrike near the electricity company in Al Nuseirat refugee camp caused extensive damage to several facilities and civilian infrastructure.

The ongoing Israeli assault on Gaza, which began on Oct. 7, 2023, has now killed 65,174 people and injured 166,071 others, the vast majority of them women and children, amid what humanitarian agencies describe as an unprecedented humanitarian catastrophe.
