ENGLISH

Israeli warplanes carried out a massacre, on Wednesday 2nd April 2025, when they bombed a UNRWA clinic housing displaced persons in Jabaliya refugee camp, Al-Jazeera reported.

Munir Al-Bursh, the Director-General of the Gaza Ministry of Health, confirmed that at least 19 Palestinians, including nine children, were killed and several civilians were wounded.

The attack has left the community in shock, and the true extent of the devastation continues to unfold.

Since dawn, Israeli airstrikes and artillery shelling on the southern and central Gaza Strip have killed 50 people and wounded many others, including women and children. 

The Israeli military’s bombing of an UNRWA health centre in the northern Gaza Strip’s Jabalia refugee camp is a fully-fledged act of mass killing. The attack is one of many that constitute a deliberate pattern of massacres committed by Israeli forces against Palestinian civilians as part of an ongoing genocide, lasting nearly 18 months now.

Israeli forces targeted the UNRWA-run health centre, which was sheltering hundreds of displaced civilians, at approximately 10:55 a.m. on Wednesday 2 April. The assault resulted in the deaths of 22 people, 16 of whom were women, children, or elderly, with dozens more individuals injured. Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor stresses that the strike reflects a deliberate Israeli policy of targeting civilian gatherings and causing mass fatalities, as part of an organised effort to erase the Palestinian presence in the Gaza Strip.

The attack was two-pronged, with Israeli forces striking both the northern and southern sides of the centre’s first floor. The bombardment also triggered fires that caused numerous civilian casualties.

       Israel’s use of highly destructive weaponry to attack a densely populated shelter—one that was primarily filled with children—demonstrates a clear and deliberate intent to carry out a massacre   

The Euro-Med Monitor field team visited the scene immediately after the strike and conducted a preliminary on-site assessment. The team found no evidence of any Palestinian military presence or activity in or around the facility, a claim corroborated by multiple eyewitnesses who categorically denied the presence of any armed individuals or military equipment in the vicinity prior to the attack.
