Iran Press/ West Asia: Civil emergency services in the besieged Gaza Strip said on Thursday that 15 people were found dead in the rubble after an Israeli strike on the Bureij refugee camp.
The health ministry in Hamas-run Gaza said Thursday at least 27 people were killed in an Israeli strike near a UN school in the Jabalia refugee camp.
"The bodies of 27 martyrs were recovered and a large number of wounded," said ministry spokesman Ashraf al-Qudra.
Meanwhile, the Israeli regime bombed the densely-populated Jabalya refugee camp in northern Gaza for the second time in two days Wednesday, prompting warnings of war crimes as more nations took diplomatic measures and condemned the regime’s offensive in the besieged enclave.
Israeli airstrikes also hit the vicinity of the Al Quds hospital in Gaza City where doctors say up to 14,000 displaced people are sheltering, according to the director of the hospital. The strikes that began Wednesday evening continued into Thursday morning and were “getting closer to the hospital,” Bashar Mourad told CNN by phone.
A Palestinian official at the Rafah crossing, Wael Abu Umar, told CNN 400 foreign nationals were due to leave, without specifying nationalities, as well as 60 other injured people. CNN spoke to six Americans who crossed the border on Thursday.
The massive second strike on Jabalya created further catastrophic damage, destroying several buildings in the Falluja neighborhood of the camp, with video from the site showing a deep crater and people digging through the rubble searching for bodies.
