13 children among 41 killed by Israeli strikes on Gaza school, refugee camps

At least 41 people, including at least 13 children, have been killed by Israeli strikes in Gaza as the Tel Aviv regime is pressing ahead with its deadly onslaught across the blockaded Palestinian territory.

AhlulBayt News Agency (ABNA): At least 41 people, including at least 13 children, have been killed by Israeli strikes in Gaza as the Tel Aviv regime is pressing ahead with its deadly onslaught across the blockaded Palestinian territory.

At least 22 people were killed and dozens more injured on Sunday after the Israeli artillery shelled a school housing the displaced Palestinians near the Nuseirat refugee camp in central Gaza.

More than 5,000 displaced people are sheltering in the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) school, according to Gaza’s civil defense.

Among the martyred was at least one infant who was brought to the hospital with injuries, but died shortly after reaching there, according to Al Aqsa hospital.

“The situation is very difficult at Al Mufti school, with a large number of martyrs and injuries,” Khaled Abu Zaher, a paramedic told CNN.

Separately, five children were killed following the shelling of al-Shati refugee camp in northern Gaza. A dozen others were injured in the attack, as well.

Footage shows children bleeding from their faces as they are transported to the hospital.

Fatalities were also reported after Israeli warplanes struck the al-Bureij refugee camp, killing and injuring several Palestinians.

The Israeli aggression against Gaza which began in October last year has so far claimed the lives of more than 42,200 people. Over 98,000 Gazans have also been injured since then.
