"After the first airstrike on Safad School, targeted by Israel, civil defense teams reached an elderly man and a child who had been injured. However, due to Israel's threat to bomb the school again, the rescue teams were forced to halt their operations temporarily. Following the second and third bombings, the teams resumed their efforts and successfully pulled the elderly Palestinian out alive from under the rubble. Tragically, the Palestinian child, who was initially found injured after the first strike, did not survive the subsequent attacks and was later recovered as a casualty."
