Israeli Airstrike on Rafah Tent Camp Kills 45, Targets Hamas Officials, Triggers Massive Fire
May 26, 2024, 09:34 PM
An Israeli airstrike targeted a tent camp for displaced Palestinians in Rafah, Gaza, resulting in dozens of casualties. Reports indicate that at least 45 people were killed, with the death toll expected to rise. Palestinian sources confirmed that 27 Palestinians were killed, with some reports indicating over 30 bodies. The airstrike triggered a massive fire, causing severe burns to many of the victims. The camp, located near UNRWA warehouses and designated as a humanitarian zone by the Israeli military, was sheltering civilians who had fled from other conflict areas. The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) stated that the strike targeted two senior Hamas officials. However, the attack has drawn significant criticism due to the high number of civilian casualties, including women and children.
