Three Palestinians were killed and over 40 others were injured in the Zionist regime’s midnight bombardment of makeshift tents set up by displaced Palestinians on the grounds of the Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital in Deir al-Balah, central Gaza.
The Gaza Civil Defense reiterated that not a single safe place in the Strip exists, with the most recent attack against civilians and patients at the hospital serving as additional proof.
As a result of the violent bombings on Monday, October 14, fires broke out, burning at least 30 tents and civilians sheltering inside. The raging flames spread to the hospital itself as civil defense crews tried to contain them.

‘Israel’ massacres children in an alleged safe school
This follows another horrific massacre carried out by the occupation in al-Mufti School in the Nuseirat refugee camp, also in central Gaza.
22 Palestinians were killed, including 15 children and one woman, and around 80 others were injured. Gaza’s Media Office stressed that the occupation deliberately bombed the school, knowing that it sheltered thousands of displaced civilians.
Additionally, the school was not labelled as a combat zone, essentially meaning it was a safe place for refugees.
The Al-Mujahideen Resistance movement condemned both massacres, saying they reflect the hypocrisy of the world, which remains silent as innocent civilians bear the brunt of the Israeli aggression that violates all human values and international law.
“These vengeful zionist crimes against innocent, unarmed civilians come after the cowardly soldiers of the occupation received painful blows from the Palestinian and Lebanese resistance, aiming to break the will to resist and challenge among our people and our nation,” the movement said in a statement.
The United States and the Israeli occupation were held fully responsible for all the crimes.
‘Israel’ targets children playing in al-Shati
Adding to their list of massacres committed on the 373rd day of the genocidal war on the Gaza Strip, Israeli occupation forces directly attacked a group of children in the al-Shati refugee camp, near the coast of Gaza City.
Al Mayadeen’s correspondent reported that the massacre claimed the lives of five children and injured several others on Sunday. The children were killed and wounded while playing together in a neighborhood in Gaza.
Additionally, the Israeli occupation is besieging the Jabalia refugee camp, were the bodies of at least three martyrs were recovered by authorities from the Tal al-Zaatar neighborhood.
Al Mayadeen’s correspondent also reported that three injured individuals were transported to the al-Awda Hospital in Nuseirat after an Israeli airstrike targeted a home in the Nuseirat refugee camp, in the central Gaza Strip.
