GAZA, April 3, 2025 (WAFA) – At least 27 Palestinian civilians, including children, were killed and over 100 others injured this afternoon in an Israeli airstrike that targeted a school sheltering displaced people in the Al-Tuffah neighborhood, northeast of Gaza City, according to local sources.
WAFA correspondent reported that Israeli warplanes struck the Al-Arqam School, which was housing displaced families, with three missiles. The attack resulted in at at least 27 fatalities and over a hundred injured among the civilians present.
Meantime, medical sources have confirmed that since the early hours of today, 75 Palestinians have been killed in Israeli airstrikes on various areas of the Gaza Strip.
Earlier today, a Palestinian civilian was killed following an Israeli drone strike that targeted a group of people in Rafah, located in the southern Gaza Strip.
Our correspondent reported that an Israeli drone struck the civilians in the Al-Nasr neighborhood, north of Rafah, resulting in one fatality. Several others were injured in the attack.
In a separate incident, the Israeli military targeted a tent sheltering displaced families in the northern part of the Nuseirat refugee camp in central Gaza, leaving several civilians wounded.
Simultaneously, medical teams and civil defense personnel recovered the bodies of 12 people and more than 20 injured individuals following Israeli airstrikes on several homes in the Turkman area of the Shuja'iyya neighborhood in eastern Gaza City.
The ongoing Israeli aggression on Gaza since October 2023 has so far resulted in at least 50,523 documented Palestinian fatalities, with over 114,776 others injured.
Thousands of victims are feared trapped under rubble, inaccessible to emergency and civil defense teams due to Israeli attacks.
Israel's genocidal attacks continue unabated despite calls from the UN Security Council for an immediate ceasefire and directives from the International Court of Justice urging measures to prevent genocide and alleviate the dire humanitarian situation in Gaza.
