The Israeli occupation committed a new massacre in the al-Shati refugee camp, west of Gaza City, targeting the Kfar Qasim school, which houses hundreds of forcibly displaced people.

The Civil Defense in Gaza reported that their teams managed to transfer seven martyrs and several wounded individuals, including critical cases, due to the Israeli shelling of the school. Among the martyrs identified in the attack was engineer Majed Saleh, the director general at the Ministry of Public Works and Housing in Gaza.

Footage from the site showed harrowing scenes of stacked bodies, injuries scattered, and destruction and fires all over the place.

Not an isolated incident 

This isn’t the first instance of "Israel" targeting schools that house forcibly displaced Palestinians. According to Gaza’s Media Office, the entity has bombed 181 displacement and shelter centers to date.

Here are some of the recent attacks:

On Saturday, September 21, twenty-two Palestinians were massacred in an Israeli strike on a school in al-Zaytoun, located in the eastern part of Gaza City.

A bombing of the UN-run al-Jaouni School in central Gaza on September 11 prompted international condemnation, as UNRWA reported that six of its staff members were among the 18 casualties.

On August 10, over 100 people were killed and another 150 injured when Israeli forces bombed al-Tabin School, east of Gaza City.

On August 4, Israeli airstrikes on the Nassr and Hassan Salama schools, west of Gaza City, resulted in at least 30 killings. Then, on August 8, attacks on Abdul Fattah Hamouda and az-Zahra schools in Gaza City killed at least 17.

On August 1, an Israeli assault on the Dalal al-Mughrabi school in Gaza City killed at least 15 Palestinians, while on August 3, another bombing of the Hamama school, also in Gaza City, killed 16 people.

Since the onset of the Israeli genocide against Palestinians in Gaza, approximately 85 percent of school buildings in the region have been damaged.

Day 352 of genocide: 41,431 martyrs, 95,818 injuries

In the past 24 hours, the Israeli occupation committed three massacres against families in the Gaza Strip, killing 40 Palestinians and injuring 58 others, the Ministry of Health in Gaza announced. 

The number of Palestinians killed so far in the Israeli aggression on Gaza has risen to 41,431, in addition to 95,818 injured, since October 7. 

For the 352nd consecutive day, the Israeli occupation continues its aggression against the Palestinian people and the Gaza Strip, committing acts of genocide and crimes against humanity. 

Several Palestinians were killed and injured on Sunday morning following the Israeli occupation's bombing of Deir al-Balah in the central Gaza Strip, further escalating the ongoing violence.

Al Mayadeen's correspondent in the Gaza Strip reported that the initial death toll from the Israeli bombing of a house in the al-Hakr area, belonging to the al-Dawas family in Deir al-Balah, stands at four martyrs, with 15 others wounded.

In a related development, our correspondent confirmed that one Palestinian was killed on Sunday evening due to Israeli gunfire in the western part of the Nuseirat refugee camp in central Gaza.

Another Palestinian was killed as a result of an Israeli drone strike in the Ma'an area, east of Khan Younis, in the southern part of the strip.

Our correspondent reported that members of the Zenoun family were forcibly displaced due to Israeli shelling that targeted the Khirbet al-Adas area north of Rafah city in the south. Several people were also injured following an Israeli airstrike targeting individuals on the beach in Beit Lahiya in the northwestern part of the strip.

Several Palestinians were injured in an Israeli strike that targeted the home of the Nassar family in the Jabalia camp in northern Gaza.

It is worth noting that IOF continue to reduce entire residential neighborhoods to rubble near the State Junction in the southeastern part of Gaza City and the Tal al-Sultan neighborhood in western Rafah, according to our correspondent.
