Israel kills 18 Palestinians in attack on school in southern Gaza’s Khan Younis
At least 18 people have been killed, including children, in an Israeli air attack on a school sheltering displaced people in the southern city of Khan Younis, according to a medical source at Nasser Hospital quoted by our colleagues.
Residents said air raids and shelling had ramped up in parts of the city, after leaflets were dropped instructing people to leave and head west. The leaflets said Israeli forces would be attacking Hamas fighters in the area.
Casualty toll rises ‘by the hour’ after intense overnight Israeli attacks
The worst of the attacks happened overnight in Khan Younis, where a school was targeted in an Israeli air attack, killing at least 18 people. The school was housing displaced families, many newly displaced from eastern Khan Younis. This highlights the illusion of safe zones, security zones, or even shelters.
There are more attack victims in the northern part of the Strip – both in Jabalia and here, in Gaza City.
In southwest Gaza City, a very crowded area, three people – a man and his children – were killed in a drone attack as they were leaving the house they were sheltering in. Two other people in Jabalia were struck by a drone.
The casualty toll is rising by the hour. Many people who have been brought to hospitals have had to wait a long time for doctors to treat them, given how overcrowded and lacking in supplies the facilities are.

The ministry condemned Israel for continuing a “systematic policy of undermining” Gaza’s health system and called for the “urgent … protection of health facilities”.
Gaza death toll rises
At least 95 Palestinians have been killed and 440 injured in Israeli attacks across Gaza in the past 24 hours, according to the enclave’s Health Ministry. Two bodies of people killed in previous Israeli attacks were also recovered from the rubble in the war-torn territory, the ministry said.
