It has been reported that this attack took place late on Sunday night on a school located in Khan Yunis area where people had taken shelter. The UN Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) says that so far 13 people have been killed and 48 others have been injured.
There is news of injuries. No warning of any kind was given before the attack. Louise Waterridge, the UN agency’s senior emergency official, told UN News that it was once again a deadly night in the Gaza Strip. “Every day we start our day with a new horror.” “I went to Nasser Hospital this morning. I talked to a 17-year-old child whose name was Mona. Her leg was seriously injured, due to the shrapnel entering her.” “She was in the hospital with her sister… her mother had died after being buried under the debris.” “A The other victim was two-year-old Julia, who suffered severe head injuries and lost the vision in one eye. Julia’s five-year-old brother also suffered serious head injuries. Emergency officials Lewis Wateridge said the family are originally from the Gaza Strip, but have been victims of forced displacement seven or eight times. Finally arrived here at the (UNRWA) school and were here for the last seven months, and now this is done. All this gives a feeling of hopelessness.” Risk of famineEarlier, the head of the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) had warned that more than 14,500 children have lost their lives in Gaza so far. Thousands more are feared buried under the debris. UNICEF Executive Director Catherine Russell expressed her anger in a message on social media that the clouds of famine continue to loom over northern Gaza and humanitarian aid is being supplied there in very limited quantities. “Approximately all 1.1 million children in Gaza need immediate protection and mental health support.” Meanwhile, according to news media, in the last 24 hours At least 69 Palestinians have been killed in Israeli military activities, from Beit Lahiya in northern Gaza to Rafah in the south. Blockage in food aid The UN World Food Program (WFP) has warned that ordinary people in Gaza will not have enough food. He is deeply worried due to the fear of not being able to meet him. Jonathan Dumont, head of emergency communications at WFP, said that a way would have to be found to deliver food from outside into Gaza. He said in an online message from Gaza that there had been massive destruction there. Electricity and water supply is at a standstill, there is a sewer problem. Everyone has lost their homes and many are living in tents. He said people come to him for food and are desperate. This can be read in their faces and eyes. To prevent famine, it is important to find a way for a continuous supply of food.
