CROSSFIREARABIA – Blood everywhere, torn limbs, mutilated bodies, people screaming. This is Israel’s latest massacre in the Abu Oreiban school in the Nuseirat Camp.
According to the massare survivors the Israeli occupation aircraft first targeted the UNRWA school with a missile. As Palestinians rushed to aid the injured, a second missile struck their gathering, killing over 19 people and injuring dozens.
The total dead was later put at 21 with 70 injured with 70 percent of those injured being women and children.
UNRWA’s Media Advisor Adnan Abu Hasna told Al Jazeera and as stated by Palestine Chronicle that the UN agency always provides the Israeli army with the coordinates of the schools but to no avail.
This was supposed to be a “safe area” as designated by the Israeli army but it continues to be bombed just the same.
The school, located in Al-Nuseirat refugee camp in central Gaza Strip, provides shelter for thousands of displaced families who have come hear from all around Gaza and clearly bears UNRWA markings.
The faces of horror ensues amidst the dozens of casualties at the Al-Nuseirat UNRWA school following the deliberate sraeli occupation bombing that repeated the massacres of displaced Palestinians happening elsewhere in the Gaza Strip.
“All of the school is a mass of different human pieces, legs, arms, heads, and children cut to pieces and martyrs which you can’t count,” one displaced shouts on top of his head.
He is repeating what everybody else is saying. All you hear is screams and endless wailing seconds after the Israeli missile landed in the middle of the school.
The school has become chaos with people running around shouting about the other men, women and children who were just killed and murdered. “Look, look around you,” one says. “Look at the bodies, cut to pieces.”
A child was buried alive in the latest attack. After frantic digging inside the school, ordinary people and civil defense brought out the child alive amidst the caked rubble and cement that surrounded his body.
As a blink of an eye, many were killed and injured. “We were sitting down here, when we heard a loud thud and there were shrapnel everywhere with broken glass all around and martyrs scattered everywhere,” said one displaced lady.
It one more massacre daily committed by the Israeli army and warplanes. Nobody knows when will this stop but they keep hoping and praying.
