Israeli air strike kills at least 10 Palestinians near Gaza school



Israeli air strike kills at least 10 Palestinians near Gaza school

Drones are reported to have fired missiles into an area near Maghazi refugee camp.

An Israeli air strike has killed at least 10 ⁠people and wounded several ⁠others near a school housing displaced Palestinians in central Gaza, according to health officials.

The strikes on Monday came as Palestinians had clashed with members of ⁠an Israeli-backed militia that had reportedly attacked the school in an attempt to abduct some people, according to medics and residents.

“At least 10 people were killed and dozens injured, including six in critical condition, by Israeli shelling and clashes east of Maghazi refugee camp,” the Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital said in a statement.

In the midst of the clashes, Israeli ⁠drones fired two missiles, killing at least 10 people and wounding several others, the witnesses added.

“The residents tried to defend their homes, but the occupation forces targeted them directly,” Ahmed al-Maghazi told the Reuters news agency.

The leader of the Israeli-backed militia said in a video published later that they killed some five Hamas members.

Al Jazeera cannot independently verify this claim. There was no immediate comment from Hamas.

‘Safe zone’

During Israel’s two-year genocidal war on Gaza, the Maghazi refugee camp was designated by the Israeli military as a so-called safe zone.

It was previously one of the Palestinian enclave’s smallest refugee camps, according to the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestinians in the Near East (UNRWA), with about 30,000 residents. In the first months of war, the population more than tripled.

Despite its designation as a “safe zone”, the Israeli military targeted it in numerous deadly strikes. One attack in December 2023 killed more than 100 people, mostly displaced women and children.

Since a fragile “ceasefire” was reached in October, Israel has continued to attack sites across the Gaza Strip, including the Maghazi camp.

  1. Two State Solution……the result:

    Crazy idea: Let's split a country in socialist and capitalist halves and check in on them in 75 years.

  2. In 1948 Pakistan and Yindia adopted a Two-State Solution and split into two secular republics. However, Pakistan became an Islamic Republic in 1956 when it adopted a new religion-based constitution.

    In 1948 the GDP per capita of the new countries were roughly the same.

    Today, despite Yindia’s population exploding and now having the largest population on earth, its GDP per capita is twice that of Pakistan.
