Second Israeli Attack on Gaza School in Four Months Kills at Least 10 Palestinians

Gaza (Quds News Network)- At least ten Palestinians were killed and several others injured in an Israeli airstrike overnight that targeted al-Tabi’in School in Gaza City. The school shelters hundreds of displaced families.

An unknown number of people are still missing and others have been injured, local sources reported.

The al-Tabi’in school was the site of a deadly Israeli attack in August that killed more than 100 people, many of whom were women and children.

Earlier on Tuesday, Israeli airstrikes hit Al-Hurriya School in Gaza’s Al-Zaytoun neighborhood, killing fifteen civilians and injuring dozens more.

Since the beginning of August 2024, the Israeli forces have targeted schools, hospitals, clinics, and shelter halls 65 times, including 39 times in October, according to Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor in a report issued in October. These attacks aim to “forcefully displace the Palestinian population from the area.”

The Israeli targeting has included shelling, direct shootings, killing forcibly displaced people and their families, or making them leave schools-turned-shelters under fire and/or with orders to evacuate. These schools are then burned or otherwise destroyed by Israeli forces in order to render them uninhabitable and stop displaced people from returning to them.
