GAZA, July 25, 2025 (WAFA) – At least five Palestinians were killed and dozens more wounded, some critically, after Israeli warplanes struck a school sheltering displaced civilians in Gaza City on Friday.
According to local sources, the airstrike targeted Al-Qahira School, located on Al-Thawra Street in western Gaza City. The school was sheltering hundreds of displaced residents who had fled ongoing military operations in other parts of the Gaza Strip.
Initial reports indicate that among the injured are several women and children. The number of casualties is expected to rise as rescue efforts continue at the site.
The ongoing Israeli aggression on Gaza since October 2023 has so far resulted in at least 59,587 documented Palestinian fatalities, with over 143,498 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 undeterred 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.
