This brings the total number of Palestinians killed in the ongoing Israeli genocide in the Strip since October 7 to 41,638, in addition to 96,460 injuries.

It noted that thousands of victims of the aggression remain trapped under the rubble and on roads inaccessible to ambulance and civil defense crews, as the occupation continues to prevent rescue teams from reaching them.

Another massacre in UN-run Gaza school; 7 killed in Israeli strike

Yesterday, at least seven Palestinians were killed in an airstrike on a school for displaced individuals in the besieged Gaza Strip.

Israeli warplanes targeted the UN-run Shuja'iyya School in the Tuffah neighborhood of Gaza City on Tuesday. Reports from Palestinian sources indicated that the attack resulted in multiple injuries as well.

This incident raised the total number of shelters and centers struck by Israel to 185 since the war escalated last October. Additionally, Oxfam reported that Israeli explosive weapons continue to target civilian infrastructure in Gaza, including schools and hospitals, approximately every three hours.

Oxfam reported that Israeli explosive weapons strike schools and hospitals every four days on average.

Concurrently, an airstrike on a residential building south of the Nuseirat refugee camp resulted in the deaths of 12 people, including children. "Israel" also bombed the Amour area in al-Fukhari Town, east of Khan Younis, though there were no immediate casualty reports.

Additionally, overnight strikes targeted the Shuja'iyya neighborhood and a tent for displaced people northeast of Rafah.
