Hamas-run health authorities in Gaza have reported that at least 20 individuals lost their lives and many others sustained injuries following an Israeli airstrike on a school that was providing shelter for displaced families. The incident occurred early in the morning, heightening the ongoing tensions in the region.
Eyewitnesses described scenes of chaos and devastation as rescue teams rushed to the site to assist the victims. The school, which had been a refuge for those fleeing the violence, became a tragic focal point of the conflict.
Local officials condemned the strike, calling it a violation of international humanitarian laws, as schools are meant to be safe havens during times of conflict. The strike has sparked outrage among residents and humanitarian organizations, who are calling for an immediate ceasefire and increased protection for civilians in the area.
The escalating violence in Gaza continues to draw international concern, with calls for dialogue and peace growing louder amidst the ongoing crisis.
