Gaza’s Health Ministry said Thursday that Israeli forces killed at least 55 Palestinians and wounded 132 more over the previous 24-hour period as Israel committed another massacre at a school sheltering displaced Palestinians.
The latest violence brings the Health Ministry’s death toll to 42,847 and the number of wounded to 100,544. “There are still a number of victims under the rubble and on the streets, and ambulance and civil defense crews cannot reach them,” the ministry said.
Ninety-nine American healthcare workers who volunteered in Gaza recently estimated that the true death toll is likely over 118,000, a number that accounts for Palestinians who are missing and presumed dead under the rubble and indirect deaths caused by the Israeli siege.
Israeli strikes on Thursday hit a school-turned-shelter in central Gaza’s Nuseirat refugee camp. According to al-Awda Hospital, 17 Palestinians, including 13 children and three women, were killed by the Israeli attack. One of the children was an 11-month-old baby.
The Israeli military claimed the school was a Hamas “command and control center” but offered no evidence.
Israeli forces continue to carry out an ethnic cleansing campaign in northern Gaza that’s focused on the Jabalia refugee camp and areas around it. In 20 days, over 770 Palestinians have been killed in the north, and tens of thousands have been forcibly displaced.
Wars anywhere are deeply disturbing and distressing, yet, what is happening in Palestine truly hurts us all.
Israel needs to recenter itself and reinvent itself into something far better….
The Holy Lands belong to everyone, not just to some…
Problem is, you can't believe a word they say. Time is on our side. Israel's economy is in a shambles, their army overextended, and the rest of the world has had it with them. Can you blame them?
They are too arrogant to care. And why not? They snap fingers, and the big dummy will prop their economy and come to their defence.
The Strait of Hormuz will be the answer.
Unfortunately, there is no way back from here. Rubicon has been crossed.
What is happening in Gaza is not a "war", it is an extermination.
MSM is absolutely delirious about the killing, as if killing of babies is terrific news.
No criticism. None. Just news of Israel doing this, Israel doing that, like genocide, the extermination of a people is something to relish, news that sponsors like to hear.
What is new? Those babies will haunt us. There is no excape from punishment. This is madness. Those that Gods wish to destroy, they first maje mad.
