Four civilians were killed on Sunday afternoon, September 29, 2024, in an Israeli airstrike targeting a school that was housing displaced families in Beit Lahia, located in the northern part of the Gaza Strip.
According to local and medical sources, the airstrike left four dead and several others wounded. The school had been serving as a shelter for civilians who were forced to flee their homes amidst ongoing violence in the region.
In recent weeks, Israeli forces have intensified their attacks on schools and shelters, many of which are filled with thousands of Palestinian families.
These families have sought refuge in these locations after their homes and neighborhoods were destroyed.
Believing the shelters to be safe, they have become targets under the relentless air campaign.
Earlier this morning, Israel’s aggressive war on Gaza entered its 359th consecutive day.
