  • 'Children torn apart' in Israeli massacre on morning prayer

After "Israel" committed a horrendous massacre during the early hours of Saturday, nothing remained of the scene but bloodied body bags and devastation. 

At least 100 Palestinians were killed in the Al-Tabieen school in Gaza City, and dozens more were injured.

As Palestinians were performing the morning prayers, Israeli warplanes struck the mosque with three airstrikes, leaving behind a hellish scene of unrecognized bodies and mass destruction.

Al-Tabieen comprises a religious school and mosque in Gaza City.

The Government Media Office in Gaza stated that "due to the enormity of the massacre and the rising number of victims, medical and civil defense teams have not yet been able to retrieve all the bodies."

AFP reported body parts being strewn around the ruins and charred, bloodied bodies slumped in the wreckage of the two-story complex. 

The Media Office held both "Israel" and the US administration responsible, pointing out that the Israeli occupation army launched a deliberate attack on the school, where many displaced individuals who had sought refuge were performing morning prayers, which led to a massive number of martyrs.

More than 300 people were present at the time of the Israeli bombing, the Office added.

It condemned this "horrific massacre in the strongest terms and [called] on the entire world to condemn it." It also demanded that the international community and international organizations put pressure on the occupation to stop the genocide and ethnic cleansing in Gaza.

According to an AFP assessment, at least 14 schools housing Gaza's displaced have been targeted since July 6, killing over 280 people.

Abu Wassim, a neighboring resident who arrived to investigate the situation, expressed that "peaceful people -- women, children, and youths -- were performing the Fajr prayer as usual when suddenly a missile hit them."

"Children were torn apart, and women were burned. What can we say or do? What is in our power?"

As a woman cried over a dead child, she screamed, "They dropped a missile on them while they were just praying. Fear God, people! Fear God, Arabs!"

Another resident from the neighborhood, Sakr, told AFP, "We found bodies of children scattered in the street."

Another reported that bodies were unrecognizable, only remains was what was left of them, asking, "What have they done wrong?"

Mohammad al-Mughayyir, head of Gaza's Civil Defense supply and equipment department, told AFP that six schools in Gaza City had been attacked in the last week alone.

US facilitating Israeli crimes

The massacre came just hours after CNN reported, citing sources, that the White House decided to release $3.5 billion in funding for "Israel" to purchase US-made weapons and military equipment, and a Zeteo report revealed that the United States is set to send 6,500 Joint Direct Action Munitions (JDAMs) to "Israel".

Such munitions (JDAMs) have been used in a series of massacres in Gaza, including in the recent bombing of the al-Mawasai tent city sheltering forcibly displaced Palestinians, killing over 90 people and wounding around 300.

Meanwhile, earlier this week, footage was leaked of Israeli occupation forces (IOF) sexually abusing a Palestinian prisoner from Gaza at the notorious Israeli concentration camp Sde Teiman.

Additionally, the United States decided on Friday not to impose sanctions on the infamous Israeli Netzah Yehuda battalion, which is accused of crimes in the occupied West Bank even by Washington.

The human rights violations included sexual assault and beating a number of elderly Palestinians to death after detaining them. Among the victims was a 78-year-old Palestinian-American man.

Secretary of State Antony Blinken informed Israeli Security Minister Yoav Gallant that the US investigation was concluded and found that the battalion has been “effectively remediated.”
