A spokesperson for the UN's Secretary-General, Stéphane Dujarric, announced that 30% of schools in Gaza have been directly bombed by the IOF so far.

He revealed that 162 out of 563 schools in Gaza were directly bombed, out of which 26 schools have been completely destroyed.

About 175,000 students go to these schools, and more than 6,500 teachers work there, Dujarric added stressing that no less than 55% of schools in Gaza need to be completely reconstructed or rehabilitated. 

These attacks are part of the IOF's targeting of all aspects of life in Gaza, in a deliberate plan to displace all Palestinians by making Gaza uninhabitable for them.

The Euro-Mediterranean Human Rights Monitor has already documented the IOF's deliberate killing of dozens of university professors, hundreds of teachers, and thousands of students in Gaza, adding that they intentionally launched many air strikes against academic, scientific, and intellectual figures in the Strip martyring dozens in raids targeting their families in their homes.

The Monitor revealed that the IOF also targeted universities in stages, the first one being bombing the buildings followed by blowing some of them up and then completely demolishing them after turning them into military barracks. 

Settlers attended IOF 'nude torture' of detained Gazans

The Israeli occupation military allowed groups of Israeli settlers access to detention centers and prisons where Palestinian detainees from the Gaza Strip were held, the Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor reported on Tuesday, citing disturbing testimonies from recently released Palestinians.

According to the report, Israeli settlers were permitted to witness acts of torture against the detainees, and many were even allowed to record these incidents on their phones.

The released Palestinians mentioned that during their interrogation sessions, the Israeli occupation forces allowed settlers to observe the torture and inhumane treatment deliberately inflicted on them.

A 42-year-old released detainee informed Euro-Med Monitor that Israeli settlers "sometimes brought their dogs with them to bark on us. They also took pictures of us and post them on social media apps, particularly "TikTok," with the soldiers themselves did the same."

Euro-Med Monitor indicated it was alarmed by the evident falsehood of the IOF's claim that the Palestinian detainees subjected to torture in the presence of Israeli settlers were fighters who took part in the October 7 operation, pointing out that their subsequent release serves as proof that this narrative is untrue and was intended as a means of seeking revenge on Palestinian civilians and attacking their dignity.
