Heavy artillery bombardment east of Gaza kills and injures displaced people

A heavy artillery bombardment that targeted the Tuffah neighborhood east of Gaza City on Friday evening resulted in the martyrdom and injury of a number of Palestinian civilians displaced in the area, while the occupation forces deliberately prevented rescue and ambulance crews from reaching the targeted location.

A local source said that artillery shelling targeted the training building affiliated with the Directorate of Education and Training in the Tuffah neighborhood east of Gaza, which is located opposite the Dar Al-Shifa Hospital for Children, targeting displaced people inside it and in the vicinity of the hospital, causing a number of martyrs and injured, some of whom were torn to pieces due to the intensity of the bombardment.

The source emphasized that the occupation forces prevented the entry of ambulances to the targeted location to retrieve the martyrs and injured, as the occupation forces impose a aerial siege on the area and prevent approaching the place.

The targeted area is one of the areas from which the occupation army withdrew, in implementation of the ceasefire agreement in force in the Gaza Strip since October 11.

Since that date, the occupation forces have continued their violations of the agreement that ended the Israeli genocide war in the sector, committing about 738 violations, killing more than 395 Palestinians, according to the latest report from the Government Media Office in Gaza.

The genocide left more than 70,000 Palestinian martyrs and 171,000 injured, most of them children and women, and massive destruction with a reconstruction cost estimated by the United Nations at about 70 billion dollars.
