Rafah tents, Massacre number 3217

At least 45 Palestinians were burned alive by the Israeli occupation who bombed tents of displaced Palestinians, west of Rafah, in the southern Gaza Strip.

The victims had taken refuge in Rafah after a series of forced displacements from the north of Gaza, and then towards its center and south.

This horrific massacre is added to the 3,216 committed in the Gaza Strip since the beginning of the Israeli aggression on October 7, which is considered a record that will be left by the current Prime Minister of the Zionist government, Benjamin Netanyahu, in terms of crimes and Palestinian bloodshed.

In this bombardment, the occupation used seven American missiles and bombs, each weighing more than 2,000 pounds of explosives, leaving dozens of children, women and men burned, while 249 were injured.

The Palestinian Ministry of Health warned that there is no hospital in Rafah that can accommodate such a large number of victims and that medical teams are unable to transport the bodies of the martyrs or treat the wounded, due to the lack of a hospital in the city.

Never before in history has so many mass killings been committed in front of the world’s eyes as is happening in Gaza, where the occupation is depriving the population of water, food, medicine, electricity and fuel, in addition to crushing the health system, and preventing the entry of supplies and aid, the health ministry said.

In turn, the Press Office in Gaza indicated that this massacre is a clear message from the Israeli occupation and the US administration to the International Criminal Court and all international courts, to the international community and to humanity as a whole, stating that the violation of international law will not stop.

The press office revealed that during the last 36 hours, the Israeli occupier bombed more than 10 UNRWA displacement centers in Jabalia, Nuseirat, Gaza and Rafah, where tens of thousands of displaced people are located.
