‘Is there logic – an F16 warplane targeting innocent children?’
The Israeli army targeted Gaza City’s al-Farabi school and killed an entire family, our colleagues on the ground are reporting. Seven members of the al-Harazeen family, including a newborn baby, were killed in the attack.
“We were peacefully sleeping and were taken by surprise as an Israeli warplane fired a missile on the school building,” said witness Samar al-Harazeen, the brother of one of the family members. “The concrete rubbles fell on me and my children, we hardly crawled our way out,” he said.
“I came to find the missile to have landed on the classroom where my brother is taking shelter with his family. We ran to find them blown to pieces. I recovered my brother’s leg from a distance – his wife and his 17-day-old newborn daughter.”
Al-Harazeen said there were dozens of body parts strewn about. “Wherever you turn, you find body parts or organs; everywhere you turn,” he said. “What crime; what wrong did they do? We are displaced innocent civilians. We are defenceless people taking shelter in a school building. Is there logic – an F16 warplane targeting innocent children?”
