At least 29 Palestinian citizens, including children, were killed and others were injured in five new massacres carried out by the Israeli occupation army in the northern Gaza Strip today, which included direct execution of displaced persons, shelling of civilian gatherings, targeting a house in Gaza City, and a school housing displaced persons in Beit Hanoun, the Palestinian official News agency Wafa reported.
Medical sources reported that seven people were killed and wounded as a result of artillery shelling targeting displaced persons inside a school in the vicinity of Abu Rashid Pool in Jabalia camp.
Eyewitnesses said that the occupation forces that penetrated the camp forced the displaced persons besieged in Kreizm school affiliated with the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) to gather and leave it.
The witnesses added that the occupation artillery fired a shell at them after they gathered, which led to the killing of at least seven of them and the injury of dozens.
In addition, six people, including children, were killed and others were injured with varying degrees in an occupation raid that targeted a gathering of citizens while they were trying to fill drinking water in the town of Jabalia.
In Jabalia camp, four civilians were killed in an airstrike launched by an occupation drone on a group of citizens near al-Yaman Al-Saeed hospital.
In Gaza City, nine citizens were killed and dozens were injured in an occupation bombing that targeted a house belonging to Maqat family behind Sheikh Radwan pond north of the city.
Three citizens were also killed and others were injured in an occupation bombing that targeted Ghazi Al-Shawa school, which houses displaced people in the town of Beit Hanoun, north of the Strip.
The sources indicated that 41 people were killed in the occupation raids on the Gaza Strip since dawn today, 33 of them in the north of the Strip.
On October 6, the occupation forces began a ground aggression north of the Gaza Strip, besieged the entire area and prevented the entry of water, food and medicine supplies.
Local health authorities confirmed that the Palestinian death toll from the Israeli onslaught since October 7 has risen to 42,603 reported fatalities, with an additional 99,759 individuals sustaining injuries. The majority of the victims are women and children.
According to the same sources, emergency services are still unable to reach many casualties and dead bodies trapped under the rubble or scattered on roads across the war-torn enclave, as Israeli occupation forces continue to obstruct the movement of ambulance and civil defense crews.
