15 Palestinians killed in a new strike on a school in Gaza


The Civil Defense in the Gaza Strip announced the death of 15 Palestinians in a strike on a school in al-Nuseirat camp in Gaza.

Civil Defense spokesman Mahmoud Basal said in a statement: ‘The strike on Abu Araban School in central Gaza, which shelters thousands of displaced people, killed 15 people, the majority of whom were women and children.’

This strike, which targeted Abu Araban School affiliated with the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) in al-Nuseirat camp in central Gaza, was the fifth on a school housing displaced persons within eight days.

On July 6, Zionist aircraft bombed Al-Jouni School, which is also run by UNRWA, in al-Nuseirat camp. UNRWA said that about two thousand people were taking shelter there at the time.

The next day, four people were martyred in a strike on the Holy Family School affiliated with the church in Gaza City, in the northern Gaza Strip, according to the Civil Defense./
