STORYLINE:
Israeli forces continued Sunday to pound Gaza, as the Palestinian death toll in the Strip approached 45-thousand after more than one year into the war.
On Sunday night a strike on Ahmad Abed Al Aziz school in Khan Younis – where hundreds of displaced were taking shelter – killed at least 16 people and wounded dozens, according to the Nasser hospital where the victims were taken.
Several children and women were among the bodies in the morgue of the hospital in southern Gaza Strip, where relatives searched, desperately trying to identify their loved ones among the victims.
On Sunday several strikes also hit northern Gaza. Six people – members of the same family – were reported killed in Gaza City following a strike on their home during the evening, Gaza’s Civil Defense said.
The war in Gaza began after Hamas and other militants from Gaza stormed southern Israel on October 7, 2023, killing some 1,200 people and taking well over 250 hostages. About 100 of them, some dead, are still in captivity in Gaza.
Israel’s retaliatory offensive has killed almost 45,000 Palestinians, according to Gaza’s Health Ministry. The ministry’s count does not distinguish between combatants and civilians, but it says over half of the dead have been women and children.
