The number of people killed in Gaza City’s al-Tabin School has risen to eight, reports Wafa, citing local medical sources. As we reported earlier, Israeli fighter planes bombed the school, which served as a shelter for displaced people.

Critical injuries at al-Ahli Hospital after al-Tabin School attack
Despite the announced ceasefire in Lebanon, the Israeli military has continued to scale up attacks across the Gaza Strip.
In overnight attacks, it continued to bomb schools, which are serving as evacuation centres housing hundreds of displaced families. That included a deadly attack on Gaza City’s al-Tabin School.
Many of those injured arrived at al-Ahli Arab Hospital in critical condition. As the hospital lacks adequate medical supplies, there is a high risk that many are going to lose their lives.
The Israeli military also carried out an operation early this morning at a school-turned-evacuation centre in Beit Lahiya. It detained every single man inside the school, blindfolding and handcuffing them. It took them to unknown areas to be interrogated. Meanwhile, Israeli forces pushed out all the women and children in the school, directing them to take Salah al-Din Street to the central area.
Two killed in Jabalia camp
Israeli forces have carried out another attack in northern Gaza, this time in the Jabalia refugee camp, our colleagues on the ground report. The attack killed at least two people and injured others, they report.

Israeli attacks near Kamal Adwan Hospital continue
There has been no end to attacks in Gaza since early this morning. In the past couple of hours, three more people were killed at the northern gate of Kamal Adwan Hospital, which has been under relentless attack. They were hit by a quadcopter.
These quadcopters are causing massive fear and intimidation. They impede the movement of paramedics, medical staff and volunteers bringing injured people to the hospital.
In addition, Israeli artillery hit residential buildings in the northern part of Beit Lahiya, as well as near Kamal Adwan Hospital.
In a separate attack, Israeli heavy artillery in Gaza City’s Shujayea neighbourhood killed four people from one family. They were going to their home there to see if they could retrieve some of the belongings they needed due to the cold.
This is a pattern. Many people who return to their homes are being killed.
