22 people were martyred, including 15 children and women, and about 80 others were injured in the occupation bombing of a school. In Nuseirat camp Central Gaza Strip, bringing the number of displacement centers bombed by the occupation since October of last year to 191 centres, while it later targeted the displaced in Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital in Deir Al-Balah.
A statement by the government media office in Gaza said that the occupation army committed a new massacre by bombing the Al-Mufti School for displaced persons in the Nuseirat camp, despite knowing that the school includes thousands of displaced children and women and that it had not classified it as a combat zone.
The statement held the Israeli occupation and the American administration fully responsible for the continuation of the crime of genocide and the continuation of committing massacres against civilians in the Gaza Strip.
The Islamic Resistance Movement said,agitationThe massacre is “a Zionist continuation of the brutal war of extermination against our Palestinian people, with the continuation of its fascist policy based on deliberately targeting civilians in residential neighborhoods and shelter and displacement centers.”
She added in a statement, “The Zionist enemy would not have dared to continue its heinous massacres in the Gaza Strip, or expand them in the region, had it not been for the cover provided by the American administration and the international silence regarding these crimes.”
In its statement, the movement called on the international community and the United Nations to assume their legal and moral responsibilities towards these repeated crimes, and to rush to immediate action to stop the ongoing aggression, and “to hold the leaders of this terrorist entity accountable for their crimes and violations against our Palestinian people and the peoples of the region.”
Israel has targeted many schools housing displaced people over the past months, committing massacres against civilians inside them, especially women and children.
Local sources reported that the occupation targeted tents housing displaced people in Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital in Deir Al-Balah, and the Civil Defense stated that its crews were trying to control the fire that broke out in the tents of the displaced people in the hospital.
Initial estimates indicate that there were a number of injured as a result of the Israeli targeting.
Since the beginning of the war on the Gaza Strip, the Palestinians have been facing the suffering of displacement, as the Israeli army orders the residents of residential areas and neighborhoods to evacuate in preparation for bombing, destroying, and invading them.
During their displacement, Palestinians are forced to take refuge in the homes of their relatives or acquaintances, and some set up tents in the streets, schools, or other places such as prisons and theme parks, under difficult humanitarian conditions where there is neither water nor adequate food, and diseases spread.
Corpses in the streets
In the northern area, which the occupation army declared isolated from Gaza City last Saturday, the Israelis continue demolitions and heavy bombardment of the area. Jabalia For the tenth day in a row, an Israeli air strike killed 5 children in the Beach Camp in Gaza City. The Palestinian News Agency and the government media office said that the children were playing near a café when a march attacked them with a missile.
Sources told Al Jazeera that the bodies of dozens of martyrs were under the rubble of homes and in the streets of Jabalia.
The sources reported that the occupation forces are destroying the remaining infrastructure in the area, including water wells, desalination plants, and solar energy.
The occupation forces expanded their incursion into the northern Gaza Strip, and tanks reached the northern outskirts of Gaza City, where Reuters quoted residents as saying that these forces had destroyed some areas in the Sheikh Radwan neighborhood, forcing many to leave their homes.
While Israel is currently focusing its attacks on the north, it continues to bomb other areas throughout the Gaza Strip. The Palestinian Ministry of Health stated that at least 11 people were martyred on Sunday morning, including at least 6 in a house in the Bureij camp in the central Gaza Strip, located south of Gaza City, bringing the number of victims to more than 30 martyrs, excluding the martyrs of the Nuseirat massacre.
Residents said that Israeli forces effectively isolated the cities of Beit Hanoun, Jabalia, and Beit Lahia in the northern Gaza Strip from Gaza City, and prevented movement between the two areas.
The Ministry of Health in Gaza said that dozens were confirmed dead in the attacks on the northern regions, and it is feared that dozens more were martyred on the roads and under the rubble of their homes without medical teams being able to reach them.

Joyce Msuya, Assistant Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs at the United Nations and Deputy Emergency Relief Coordinator, said – in a post on X – that “what is happening in northern Gaza is terrifying and words cannot describe it.”
“Israeli forces are intensifying their attacks. Hospitals have been forced to evacuate their patients. Essential supplies are running out. People are being forced from their homes, cut off from aid, and starving. These atrocities must end,” she added.
Palestinian and United Nations officials say there are no safe areas in Gaza. They also expressed concerns about severe shortages of food, fuel and medical supplies in the north of the Strip and said that the threat of famine looms there.
In the southern area of the besieged Gaza Strip, local officials on the border said that the Israeli authorities released 12 Palestinians who had been arrested during the ground attack. Detainees said after their release that they were subjected to torture and ill-treatment during their detention, which Israel denies.
