Four Palestinians were killed and many others were injured in an Israeli raid targeting al-Jaouni school, which has been sheltering refugees, in the Nuseirat camp in central Gaza. 

On Thursday night through early Friday, the Israeli occupation launched a series of airstrikes across central, northern, and southern Gaza, while simultaneously shelling several areas.

An Israeli raid targeted a Palestinian home located in the al-Shati refugee camp in western Gaza, while Israeli quadcopters burned refugee tents in western Rafah. 

Earlier, a Palestinian man was killed while two others were injured in the Israeli bombardment of the al-Awda roundabout in central Rafah. This came as Israeli artillery shelling targeted the northern area of the city. 

A number of Palestinian civilians were also injured amid intense Israeli raids targeting Jabalia – where residential squares were deliberately attacked – and artillery shelling across northern Gaza.

UN runs out of tents, food in southern Gaza due to Israeli blockade

Meanwhile, the occupation has closed down all crossings for over a week now, blocking all aid into Gaza, where Palestinians are already facing a spread of famine and hospitals are shutting down due to the lack of fuel, leaving tens of thousands of wounded at risk of dying. This included the recent occupation of the Rafah crossing with Egypt.

The United Nations has run out of tents and food to distribute to Palestinians in the Gaza Strip, UN officials told The Guardian on Wednesday. 

UN officials reported that the agencies' warehouses, located south of the Netzarim Axis, which splits Gaza City and some towns from the rest of the Gaza Strip to the south, have been completely emptied and will not be resupplied if the Israeli occupation continues to block humanitarian routes. 

"There are no tents in humanitarian warehouses. There are also no stocks of food left with the World Food Programme or UNRWA [the UN agency for Palestinian refugees] south of the [river]," UN officials told The Guardian. 

The head of the Gaza sub-office of the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), Georgios Petropoulos, said that he expected food available on the market and what the organizations have distributed to be finished soon. The official warned that "time is running out," urging authorities to make available "a sustainable crossing open for predictable humanitarian supplies into southern Gaza."
