Multiple Israeli air strikes on three schools in Gaza City have killed at least 33 people—18 of those victims are children. The buildings were sheltering hundreds of displaced families. That brings the total to 112 Palestinians killed in attacks across the strip since dawn. The Israeli military has been expanding its assault since breaking the ceasefire on March 18th.
Al Jazeera’s Michael Appel reports.
At least 33 Palestinians have been killed and more than 100 wounded in Israeli air attacks on three schools housing displaced people in the Tuffah neighbourhood of Gaza City, according to local officials.
Gaza’s Government Media Office said in a statement that 29 people – including 18 children – were killed and more than 100 were injured when Israeli air raids hit the Dar al-Arqam School-turned-shelter on Thursday.
The school was hit with at least four missiles, a Civil Defence spokesperson said.
Sources told Al Jazeera that at least four people also were killed in an Israeli attack on the Fahd School in the same area of Gaza City, which was also sheltering displaced families.
Israeli forces also reportedly hit Shaaban Alrayyes school in Tuffah, although no figures on casualties were immediately available.
The Israeli military said it struck a command centre in Gaza City that had been used by Hamas fighters to plan and execute attacks against Israeli civilians and soldiers. It was unclear whether it was the same attack that targeted a school.
Israeli forces have routinely targeted shelters in the Gaza Strip that house displaced families who have nowhere to flee and remain trapped in the besieged enclave, which is being heavily bombarded.
Al Jazeera’s Hani Mahmoud, reporting from Gaza City, said the footage from the site of the bombing at Dar al-Arqam School was “horrific”.
“Some of the footage is too graphic to show – horrific and deeply disturbing. Many were killed on the spot while others succumbed to their injuries while being transported in ambulances or civilian vehicles to al-Ahli Hospital,” Mahmoud said.
“This tragedy underscores again that Israeli-described ‘safe zones’ are anything but,” he added.
A spokesperson from Gaza’s emergency rescue workers told Al Jazeera the international community must step in immediately to stop the Israeli army from killing Palestinians.
“What is going on here is a wake-up call to the entire world. This war and these massacres against women and children must stop immediately. Children are being killed with cold blood here in Gaza,” he said.
Medical sources told Al Jazeera that at least 112 people have been killed in Israeli attacks on the Gaza Strip since dawn on Thursday with 71 people killed in Gaza City and many others killed in attacks on the southern city of Khan Younis.
In Gaza City, 21 bodies were taken to al-Ahli Arab Hospital, including those of seven children.
Officials in Khan Younis said the bodies of 14 people had been taken to Nasser Hospital – nine of them from the same family. Those killed included five children and four women.
The bodies of another 19 people, including five children aged one to seven years and a pregnant woman, were taken to the European Gaza Hospital near Khan Younis, hospital officials said.
The Government Media Office warned that Civil Defence crews are finding it increasingly difficult to remove people from under the rubble without adequate equipment and vehicles and while the healthcare sector is collapsing.
Israel has imposed a monthlong total siege on Gaza, sealing vital crossings and banning the entry of all humanitarian aid, including food, fuel and medical supplies – leaving Palestinians in Gaza with acute shortages and exacerbating an already dire humanitarian catastrophe.

The 2024-2025 academic year in Gaza began amid severe challenges, with schools destroyed by Israeli air raids. Despite harsh conditions, over 300 students attended a school that had been repeatedly targeted. Many students have lost their homes, families, and even parents during the ongoing conflict. However, parents, teachers, and students are determined to continue their education. The school building still houses displaced civilians who have no alternative shelter. Despite the suffering and trauma, these children are resolute in resuming their studies.

Israel’s attack on al-Jaouni school the ‘result of total impunity’: Analysis
22,789 views Sep 12, 2024 #IsraelWar #IsraelHamasWar #UNRWA
The lack of accountability that Israel has faced following previous attacks has enabled the latest massacre to take place at the UN-operated al-Jaouni school in central Gaza, Abdullah Al-Arian, assistant professor of history at Georgetown University in Qatar, has told Al Jazeera.
“This is the result of total impunity,” he said, referring to the strike. “We have become so desensitised to this level of atrocity [in] schools and hospitals that we forget that at the beginning this was considered something completely off limits.”
Al-Arian said Israel has been “testing the limits of what is acceptable” to the international community and escalating violence accordingly in Gaza.
“This is exactly how genocidal campaigns unfold,” he said.
Al-Arian added that the targeting of UNRWA facilities and staff was part of a broader attempt to delegitimise and criminalise the agency, which Israel sees as an obstacle to its goal of stripping Palestinians of their refugee status.

Hassan Barari, professor of international affairs at Qatar University, says Israel’s attack on a Gaza City school housing displaced Palestinians is part of its strategy to hurt peace efforts. “They’ve been targeting hospitals and now schools, back-to-back targeting of schools. And this is a reflection of an Israeli mindset that wants to make Gaza really a hard place to live in,” Barari told Al Jazeera. “And this is also part of the pressure to put on Hamas in order to give in in any future talks.”
He said Israel is acting in “bad faith” regarding the peace talks, which mediators have proposed to resume on Thursday. “And we have seen this movie before,” Barari said. “Every time there was talk about peace talks and about truth, the Israelis would do something to undermine the effort. And I think this is clear this time that Netanyahu is trying to pre-empt the talks on Thursday.”
