More than 50 people have been killed in the northern Gazan attacks, according to reports.
On Monday morning, the death toll from the overnight attacks was recorded. According to Palestinian Civil Defense officials, a school in Gaza City and a family home in Jabalia were two of the targets hit.
According to Civil Defense spokesman Mahmud Bassal, at least 33 people were killed in an attack on the Fahmi al-Jarjawi school in the Daraj neighborhood of Gaza City in the middle of the night, according to AFP news agency.
Bassal claimed that the school had been providing shelter to “hundreds” of people, noting that the victims were primarily women and children. He continued, “Dozens were hurt.”
The Israeli military claimed on Monday that “key terrorists” were staying at a Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad control center.
According to the report, “Numerous steps were taken to reduce the risk of harming civilians.”

targeted schools
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu reiterated last week that Israel would launch an intensified military campaign until it had total control over Gaza despite mounting international pressure that has prompted Israel to lift a blockade on aid supplies.
Attacks on civilian infrastructure, including schools, are prohibited under international humanitarian law. Throughout its 19-month conflict in Gaza, Israel has repeatedly bombed schools, most of which are now used as shelter for displaced people.
At al-Buraq School in Gaza City, at least 50 people were killed in bombings and artillery shellings in November 2023.
