Local sources and medics reported that most of the victims were women and children. The attack hit the Dar al-Arqam and Shaaban al-Rayes schools in the Tuffah neighbourhood.

Witnesses added that the Israeli attack caused huge destruction to the schools and nearby residential buildings.

The Israeli military claimed, without providing evidence, that the deadly attacks carried out on the two school shelters were a “precise strike” that targeted “terrorists who were operating in command and control centres” in the buildings.

Since the start of the ongoing genocide, the Israeli military has repeatedly targeted schools-turned-shelters across Gaza. These attacks have included shelling, direct shootings, and the killing of forcibly displaced people and their families or making them leave the schools under fire and/or with orders to flee.
