Massacre: 20 People Killed in Israel Strikes of Gaza School

At total of 20 Palestinians were reportedly killed and dozens more wounded in an Israeli airstrike that targeted a Al Falah School sheltering displaced families in Al-Zeitoun neighborhood that lies in the south of Gaza City.

In between those killed were 13 children and 6 women while 30 people were injured including nine children.

The school was hit by two Israeli missiles with the impact so vast that many of those killed were turned into pounds of human flesh. In one case a fetus was blown out of a woman who was killed in the process.

The injured were taken to the Al Ahli Baptist Hospital where doctors are calling for blood donations.

Mahmoud Basal, spokesperson for the Civil Defense, confirmed the death toll, stating: “Twelve children and six women were killed in this horrific massacre by the Israeli occupation forces at the Zaytoun School, which was home to thousands of displaced civilians.”

The Government Media Office in Gaza labeled the attack as a horrific massacre, emphasizing that 30 people were injured, with many suffering from severe burns, amputations, and other life-threatening injuries. Two people remain missing under the rubble of the destroyed school.

Meanwhile Fahrettin Altun, Director of Communications for the Turkish Presidency, condemned the world’s silence regarding the ongoing Israeli genocide in Gaza.
