Dozens of Palestinians have died this Tuesday in the bombings by the Zionist Army on central and southern Gaza, according to police sources. Thousands of people were in an area declared a "safe area" by the Israeli army, where bombs have also been dropped, once again, against the army's own criteria, according to the Palestinian Health Services.

At least 23 Palestinians have died in the Nuseiro refugee camp in central Gaza, and nearly 80 have been injured in an air strike at a UN school, according to the Gaza Government communication services. Further south, Israel has once again attacked the al-Mawas refugee camp in Younis, and in the city hospital they have recorded seventeen deaths. Al-Mawasi has also been beaten this weekend by the Zionist Army, which has killed almost a hundred people and wounded some 300.

Journalist Mohammad Meshmesh has been killed, among other crimes, in the bombing of Nuseirat in northern Gaza, the authorities reported. There are therefore at least 160 journalists killed in the genocide in Gaza in the last nine months.

The U.N. school is at the point

In the last week, Israel has bombed five UNRWA schools, a UN organization dedicated to Palestinian refugees, where thousands of Palestinians were refugees and killed hundreds of people. UNRWA itself has warned that seven out of ten UN-run schools have been bombed by Israel since the beginning of the genocide in Gaza. “95% of our schools were being shelled as a shelter,” UNRWA has denounced on social media. “There’s no safe place.” UNRWA President Philippe Lazzarini has stated that attacking buildings at the UN is contrary to international law. In addition to schools, the Israeli Army has also destroyed the UNRWA "headquarters", as Lazzarini himself reported.

NGO Save the Children has also condemned the latest Israeli attacks and stated that "schools and hospitals should never be military targets." “Children cannot be at the forefront of the conflict,” the humanitarian organization said. In fact, according to the latest data from Al Yazira with other agents, more than 88 per cent of schools in Gaza have been affected by Israeli bombings in recent months.
