“In the last seven days the Israeli occupation has intensified its barbaric bombing of the Nuseirat refugee camp like never before”, explaining that more than 75% of the victims arrived at hospitals with burns as a result of the occupation’s use of thermal and chemical weapons.
Nuseirat has been one of the areas hardest hit by Israeli fire in the last week, when there were two consecutive attacks on schools of the UN agency for Palestinian refugees (UNRWA), with especially high death figures: 17 and 23 respectively.
The refugees camp in Nuseirat currently houses more than 250,000 people, beeing one of the most densely populated camps in Gaza.
The Gazatian Healh authorities confirmed that occupation forces deliberately bombed neighborhoods and houses inhabited by people, and residential buildings and towers, and deliberately caused the largest possible number of martyrs and injuries.
The second attack, which occurred on 16 July at the Al Razi school, resulting in 63 injuries, was justified by the Israeli Army on the grounds that a group of alleged militia members “planned and directed numerous attacks against Israeli troops in the Gaza Strip.”
Since the beginning of the war in the Gaza Strip, 38,983 people have been killed and 89,727 others injured, while thousands of bodies remain under the rubble along the enclave without access to them by rescue teams, according to the Ministry of Health of this territory.
