In Gaza, Israel has bombed another U.N. school in Gaza City. It’s at least the ninth U.N. school shelter Israel has attacked in the past two weeks. Deadly attacks have also been reported in the Bureij and Nuseirat refugee camps, killing at least 13 Palestinians.
In Khan Younis, health officials exhumed and transferred the bodies of at least 12 Gazans who were killed when Israel attacked and besieged the Red Crescent-run Al-Amal Hospital earlier this year. The mother of one of the victims traveled from Gaza City to retrieve her son’s body.
Areej Hamouda: “He was martyred at the Red Crescent hospital. They shot him, and he had a loaf of bread with him, which he had to beg for to get for his daughter. They shot him in the eye and in the head. It rained on him. He was washed with blood. He was just thrown there all day long. They weren’t able to move him. They pulled him with a rope when they brought him to be buried here. … I was able to know his whereabouts. They called me to inform me that my son had died. I risked my life to come here from Gaza City. But I said to myself that if I will die, I will die. So I put a piece of paper on my chest with my name on it, and I kept walking by the sea. I kept walking and asked around until I reached here with his sick father.”
