Following the restoration of communication after the blackout, reporters confirmed that Israeli occupation forces, under the veil of darkness, had carried out two additional massacres at al-Fakhoura and Tal al-Zaatar schools, where forcibly displaced Palestinians from Jabalia camp in the northern Gaza Strip were taking refuge.

These schools, affiliated with the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA), which were subjected to relentless Israeli shelling, are among the largest shelters in the Gaza Strip.

As per the Palestinian Minister of Health, Mai al-Kaila, the number of martyrs in the Israeli bombing of al-Fakhoura School, which is the largest school in Jabalia camp, has risen to 200.
