GAZA: Four Palestinians were killed and at least 15 others injured this afternoon when Israeli airstrikes targeted the Um Al-Fahm School-which was sheltering displaced families-in the town of Beit Lahia, northern Gaza.

According to medical sources, the casualties included a significant number of children and women. Eyewitnesses reported hearing two loud explosions as warplanes fired missiles at two classrooms within the facility.

The ongoing Israeli aggression on Gaza since October 7, 2023, has so far resulted in 41,586 documented Palestinian fatalities, with an additional 96,210 individuals sustaining injuries, the majority of whom are women and children.

Thousands more are feared dead under the rubble of destroyed structures across the war-torn enclave, with civil defense teams and emergency services unable to reach several areas due to safety concerns amid the indiscriminate Israeli attacks.
