Archivist Notes On This Video

Islam Bader is reporting after the first strike. The following is a summary translation:

  • 6 killed as of the report. The death toll is likely increase as the firsts trike completely destroyed a wing of the school
  • The adjacent Al-Hurriya School was also damaged
  • During rescue operations, the IDF called people present at the school threatening another strike
  • many of the casualties are, again, children, as this was a shelter
  • Worthy of note is that the number of IDPs in this school decreased recently due to the IDF's assault in Zaytoun which led people to seek shelter elsewhere, including in their ruined homes. Nevertheless, the school still sheltered thousands of people
  • Civilians and first responders were forced to evacuate immediately under IDF threats, leaving behind victims
  • Israel is still intent on adhering to its policy of targetting school shelters. The Government Communications Office reported that a total of 172 shelters have been targetted.

Israel carried out a series of airstrikes on Safad School in the vicinity of Al-Shafi'i mosque in Zaytoun neighbourhood of Gaza City. The school, like many other, was used a shelter for hundreds of families. • The airstrike targeted a police station inside Safad School • 11 have been confirmed killed • The adjacent Al-Hurriya School was also damaged • Gaza Civil Defense reported that the IDF threatened a second airstrike, and moments later a third strike hit the school.
