Israeli air strike on Gaza’s Jabalia refugee
Israeli air strikes targeted the Jabalia refugee camp for a third time in as many days, according to Al Jazeera.
On Thursday, at least three Palestinians were martyred and many injured in the bombing of a house in the camp.
The number of victims of the dual Israeli bombings of the Jabalia refugee camp has exceeded 1,000 in 24 hours, claims Al Jazeera, citing the latest report published by Gaza’s Government Media Office.
Almost 200 people were killed and at least 777 wounded in the first two bombings of the Jabalia refugee camp on Tuesday and Wednesday.
Another 120 people are still missing, as per the report published by Gaza’s Government Media Office.
The United Nations (UN) human rights office in a statement said that the Israeli air strike on Gaza’s Jabalia refugee camp may be considered a war crime, as people express increasing horror at the growing number of civilians martyred during the month-long war.
#Gaza – Given the high number of civilian casualties & the scale of destruction following Israeli airstrikes on Jabalia refugee camp, we have serious concerns that these are disproportionate attacks that could amount to war crimes. pic.twitter.com/ky2jYVrhJq
