Zaitoun School “C” massacre

On midday, the IDF carried out an airstrike on the UNRWA Al Zaitoun Preparatory Girls’ School “C”, situated next to the Al-Falah school in a school-complex are in Zaytoun neighborhood of Gaza City. The school, like all others in Gaza, is used as shelter by displaced persons.

Note: local press correspondents reported the school under different names: Al-Falah School, or Al-Zaitoun School "B". We know that all of these schools are part of the same UNRWA school-complex.

The horrific footage showed severed body parts and amputated children all around the place.

Two bombs were dropped on the school, as confirmed by the Civil Defense and seen in footage by Al-Jazeera journalist Anas Al-Sharif showing clearly two separate spots where the ceiling penetrated, showing very comparable holes caused by the bombs. Two wing fragments of GBU-39 SDBs (Small Diameter Bombs) were found, in addition to what could be the nosecone of one of those bombs

The school-complex was previously bombed twice: on November 16, 2023 and July 18, 2024.

Casualties:

• 22 confirmed killed by the Civil Defense, including 12 children and 6 women.
